I prefer NBC broadcasts for hockey in the US actually. I think they've done a wonderful job of trying to distinguish themselves in broadcasting hockey.

I can safely say NBC is my favorite broadcast, period. Sportsnet is amateur hour game after game, HNIC & Hometown hockey are just horrendous, and TSN just ain't what it used to be. Although TSN still does have the best panels, hands down.
