IMO the problem is that Sportsnet invested heavily on media personalities and not on investigative journalists.

Media personalities can consistently fill radio and TV air time with content but can't necessarily uncover anything more than what is given to them or what is already out there.

Investigative journalists may not always provide content but dig into important stories. The top of investigative journalists covering the NHL right now appear to be Westhead (TSN) and Strang (The Athletic).
