Have to say Sportsnet was solid and entertaining all day long for trade deadline. Much improved over previous years where it seemed lacking fill and jumped all over the place. Good stories and presentation.
Boudreau was a good add with Burke, Hrudey and Debrusk. Stewart, Versteeg, Bieksa and Armstrong remained above the cringe line.
Friedman and Johnston severely underused though. I know they're the insiders but their whole role all day was in the back doing trade announcer lackies with no ability to be involved in conversations or analysis.
A few too many multiple repeat feeds with locals in Edmonton, Montreal and Winnipeg but I was behind the feed so I just hit ffwd.
