Would prefer to have Frank back, but this is a VAST improvement.

Frank was my number one choice but McLoed is very good. Looking forward to the season

What was wrong with Frank? I though he did a good job. Woog is good as an in studio analyst but not great as a color guy. Lapanta was solid, but does not have "the voice" needed to be a big time broadcaster, which blows my mind why the FSN hired him to do the Wild. I don't remember McLeod because I grew up in the country and we could never get NorthStar games on TV.

Can't wait to hear: "Bjugstad takes into the neutral zone". Doug also narrated the State High School Tourney special produced a couple years ago on FSN.

Nice choice! I was starting to worry with the delay in picking someone and the impending NHL lockout they were just going to put LaPanta back in, whew...

Now hire Frank back and get rid of Gorg. And just take Lapanta off the air and out of our misery!

Awwwwww man, I thought it was going to be Frank. He was and always will be my favorite play-by-play guy for Gopher Hockey.
