We know what Anson Carter brings and if we get anything useful from Gretzky, I’ll be shocked. But Tocchet as a recent retiree (unless he wants to coach again and won’t rock the boat) and Bissonnette give me hope that it won’t be a pablum-filled studio show. I always liked Panger on game broadcasts but haven’t seen enough of Keith Jones outside the studio to judge.
Liam ... yes. But that other cast of mooks will keep me from paying any attention to the studio stuff.

Paul "Missed the Net"s finest work might be plugging the Pink Whitney vodka for New Amsterdam with his buddy Ryan Whitney, I have enjoyed a few bottles of that spirit around the pool this summer and it goes down pretty easy!

I'm thrilled that nobody offered Mike Milbury a job. Is there a more tiresome studio analyst in NHL broadcast history? That guy is tapered at both ends, because he's a giant turd.

TNT might not like us, but different story for Disney.
The Mouse and his affiliates also announced their NHL schedule:
Note that the Canes have several 'exclusive games' on ESPN, ABC and ESPN+/Hulu
I guess that means ALL of those games are not going to be on Bally's? It also means that unless you have access to ESPN+ or Hulu, there are 7 Canes games you won't be able to watch.
