Looks like the rights are going back to TSN

Noooooooooooooooo.
What do you mean no? TVA was horrible. I think this is good news.
I speak as a Rogers subscriber in which I get Sportsnet for free. Now I have to pay for TSN. And I had no issue with John Bartlett.
I'm also in the Ottawa region so I'll probably take a back seat anytime there's a Sens game. Amazing.
Would be awesome if Gord Miller and Ray Ferraro called the games. Not sure if that'll be possible since they already do Sens games if I recall correctly.
Chris Cuthbert would be nice too.

TSN is better but this is bad news for Rogers customers and GameCenter users.
Can't stand TVA Spanre. Hopefully, this spells the end for them.
TVA has national French rights, this is English regional rights. I don't think it'll change anything on the French side of things, they bought the national rights from Rogers. Regional is from Bell right?
RDS still carry most Habs regular season games. For another 6 years. At $65M per season.
Please let this be true. Being in Atlantic Canada I would finally have a reason to watch TSN again which I pay for as part of my Bell satellite package and hardly watch anymore. Also the hockey broadcast on TSN is far superior to anything hockey related on Sportsnet.

I live in the Atlantic Canada as well and tbh I am not a fan of Rogers, I am a TSN manI never enjoyed John Bartlett, he picks a name of an opposing teams player and he over pronounces it 25 times a game and then we have Jason York and his post concussion reflections. Give me Gord Miller and grumpy Ray Ferraro or maybe if we are lucky, Chris the best in the business Cuthbert gets to call our games, that would be a big upgrade over what we have now.
