He must have taken a role with TNT or ESPN otherwise it makes very little sense

Seravelli was front and centre when the Bill Peters/Akim Aliu story broke:

Only if you dont watch TSN hockey coverage.

He has been front and center as an "insider" for years now.

As mentioned its probably to take a similar position with ESPN or TNT.

So he is preparing to move back to Philly, when Johnny gets traded.

Maybe he is taking a demotion to live in a different area? Darren Millard left the lead host role on Sportsnet to be the Leah Hextall/Ryan Leslie for the Golden Knights. I assume he just wanted to live in Vegas and probably makes similar cash even though he went from a National to Regional market.

He always rubbed me the wrong way with his Jets and Bombers homerism.

This is a huge loss for TSN. As an insider, he was second best next to Pierre LeBrun.
