And the fool feels the need to scream into the microphone and every opportunity, he just makes the hockey night less enjoyable, he really needs shot of his ego

His ego is the problem, the figure skaters are not even off the ice and he can't wait to get on the microphone, in my opinion he needs to go, he is embarrassing , annoying and poor at the job, i feel he lessens the nights entertainment.

I'm not there often because of location and work. On the two occasions I've been in The Ice Rink this year the volume has registered as 105dBA in Block H. The app I use isn't terribly accurate at high levels but it's close enough. I'd say it was above 100dBA most of the time. I certainly was aware of the effect on my ears when I came out.
There is no need for this level of sound. It's a social event and it's about talking about the game during the breaks in play and meeting people. It's also about supporting the team and, heaven forbid, expressing our discontent when things are not as they should be.
I'm not commenting on the content.
Perhaps it might be worth getting a petition together on the volume issue? Scrap that; they won't pay any attention.
On a historical note, I can remember when Thin Lizzy played in The Ice Rink I could recognise songs from the Gallatown Park in 1981. As a poor student at the time I couldn't afford the £5 ticket. Perhaps that saved me from permanent hearing damage.

I've been at gigs that aren't as loud. You can't talk to the person next to you without some cheesey club ,using coming on.

I've tweeted him a few times during the games about the volume of the music. As mentioned above, folk are there watch the game and chat with friends. If they wanted to listen to loud music, they'd go out clubbing!

This is why we all appear so antisociable, having to communicate via FB messenger because we can't hear a blooming word we're saying to each other otherwise! The DJ really needs to lower the volume, I couldn't care about the muffled cheese he speaks because that doesn't come out clear enough in E anyway it's just blurred noise! The guy that does it for the Kestrels is far superior, why can't we have him instead?

Kestrels is a good experience. Competitive hockey and a good DJ. I wonder the if the Flyers DJ has ever been to an NHL game to see how it is done.

Did he ever get round to announcing the scorer of the winning goal? We walked around the rink and out the door and didn't hear it.

I was disappointed on Saturday just after Broony pulled off a great save and the crowd were cheering. A Broony Broony chant started up and was immediately silenced by Its a kind of magic played full belt.
This chanting would have really boosted Broonys confidence ( we are always being told how important this is !!) But stopped in its tracks.
Also when the team are skating round at the end on their lap of honour, they dont need a song played to them, they need cheers and shouts from the crowd to give them that feel good factor. Its mentioned nearly every week by Todd or the players, so sadly we cant compete with the Music or announcements through our cheers.
