Default Milbury fired from NBC....replaced by Babcock

Quote:
NHL analyst Mike Milbury is out at NBC after 14 years with the network. The news came on Monday as NBC unveiled its game and studio commentary lineup for the 2021 NHL season, and Milbury was conspicuously absent.

"We are grateful to Mike for all of his contributions to our coverage for 14 years," NBC Sports said in a statement. "But he will not be returning to our NHL announce team. We wish him well."

Milbury, the former Boston Bruins and New York Islanders coach and GM, was pulled from NBC's Stanley Cup playoff coverage in August after his on-air comments about players not being as distracted in the league's bubble because no women were there in the league's bubble.
