He is middle tier. Problem is, top tier has like three guys in it.

Ferraro. Mike Johnson. Umm...
Razor Reaugh even though he doesn’t do much national stuff.
Boucher is really good, but he’s been the third wheel. I’m sure he could do the two job

he's very good at chuckling at unfunny comments from people born in the 50's, and also is able to plainly describe things like the grass being green. but he gives you nothing above replacement level. empty suit, just like the rest.
he's certainly a butt, but this is more an issue with NHL media thinking that fans want someone who looks like a dentist giving them overly-formalized, basic insights rather than something interesting.
...of course if you're watching intermission reports in 2021, then you have bigger problems

"Boucher is really good"...at what? not being bad?Ferraro. Mike Johnson. Umm...
Razor Reaugh even though he doesn’t do much national stuff.

he's another empty suit. so are the other guys. it's an outdated format that's only getting worse.

He has the most nuanced eye in the group. He sees a lot of the small plays that other guys either miss or see and don’t comment on. It’s a nice change from Pierre openly wanking it to a route pokecheck"Boucher is really good"...at what? not being bad?Ferraro. Mike Johnson. Umm...

so boucher is a nice warm bath who is there if you need him and easy to ignore if you don't care about the details. this is a fine experience. but his charisma dial is turned down way low.He has the most nuanced eye in the group.

and really...they put him with that one lady a lot. i don't know her name but she's very very bad and hard to listen to. which makes boucher an accessory to being hard to listen to. maybe if you put an A squad together in the booth, i'd start to pick up on the merits of boosh. but it's all just a bunch of crap thrown at a wall it's hard for anyone to stick out.

I actually really like Pierre as a 3. Exudes passion and clearly knows the game well. Yeah he's annoying at times but christ I listen to Bob erred 70 games a year

Regardless of how annoying it is to be on the opposite end of who he’s giving a handy to, he’s lazy. Picks a story beforehand and sticks with it. His knowledge and enthusiasm doesn’t mean anything when his script for a 3 hour broadcast is one paragraph long.I actually really like Pierre as a 3. Exudes passion and clearly knows the game well.

He’s old and lazy now. It’s not gonna reverse.

He might be too nice to excel at this.

no edge, meow. you need a little chili powder in your tool belt if you want to be a compelling media personality. boucher is the guy you want your daughter to marry.He might be too nice to excel at this.
in other words - he's boring

Andy Brickley is pretty good, no? Too heavy accent for national TV maybe?

i think he's like Jones. however good he is, he chortles the balls of local players so hard, that you can't wash the stink off of him.Andy Brickley is pretty good, no? Too heavy accent for national TV maybe?
...and his accent is bad

Brick is way better than Jones. Brick has done national work, but is used very sparingly...

Meh, maybe, Martin Biron does work on English Canada TV, his is harsher than Brick's for me...but regardless, I doubt he's going to leave NESN right now unless Jack Edwards smells as bad as his teeth look...

it's not that brick has AN accent. it's that he has the ugliest accent in human history. biron need not apply here.

Biron's french canadian accent lends itself more to him knowing hockey over Brick losing his khakis. wait no. his car keys

Totally off topic, but for the past decade, I haven’t been able to enjoy French toast without thinking of Marty Biron.Biron's french canadian accent lends itself more to him knowing hockey over Brick losing his khakis. wait no. his car keys
