I will take mediocre comprehensive coverage on SNET any day of the week, over glancing 'whatever' coverage that looks pretty from TSN any day of the week.
Save the complaining until we see what SNET has to offer next season. But at the end of the day, this was BY FAR, the better result for the western teams.

Not really. National broadcasts won't have much more to do with Western teams no matter who's doing them. The viewers are out East. That didn't change today.
It remains to be see if the comprehensive pre-and-post coverage on SN will be any different than the Faceoff with the Flood re-runs and throws to the sub-standard Connected hosts and terrible Hockey Central panels we get regionally. Hopefully it improves. And it should. SN is getting "the hate" in here because it puts out a poor product.
