I was also wanting to comment on the PBP and analyst coverage during the playoffs. I don't recall CBC ever having a separate feed and the US PBP/ analyst guys on the Canadian broadcast.
Call me old fashion but I like to hear familiar voices when watching the games. I know I know guys like Healy are awful but at least they are consistently awful.
This is starting to look REAL budget ! Seems like the NHL just cares strictly about the $$ and product quality be dammed. The NFL wants the revenue AND quality so they can parlay the deal into better fan experience / more revenue.
Ahh well. Only a decade to go
