That has nothing to do with how the national Sportsnet broadcasts will look.
Some of TSNs hockey talent will be coming to Sportsnet - they simply won't be able to afford to keep all of them around. For the most part, hockey will just be on a different channel.

Maybe. But what's been overlooked here is that SN will now be a virtual NHL monopoly in Canada. Why should SN sink a lot of resources into the broadcasts? It's not as though the viewers (or the broadcasting talent) have an alternative.
