We get more choices now, but largely only the two time slots.

That being said, I love being able to watch the Sens or Habs or Jets, and I support a reduced role for Maclean. Don't like Strombo, and generally hate the panelists Rogers brought in. I find other things to do during intermissions.

So while my personal response to the change at HNIC would be a giant "meh", I find this poll result to be unsurprising. Rogers is F'ing with tradition. That rarely elicits positive responses.

There were only 5 tripleheaders last year. I think it just seemed like more due to the outdoor games.
