Bumping this.
What are people’s thoughts on NBC’s coverage during the return to play?
Im very impressed with the coverage, overall.
•Plenty of channels to show all of the games including NBC, NBCSN, CNBC, and USA
•Pre-game, intermission, and post game shows are pretty good. A lot of new faces in addition to the familiar ones.
•In game crews have been pretty good as well. I like the Forslund, Milbury, Boucher crew. I’ve also enjoyed Kenny Albert with Pierre in Edmonton.
•Camera angles and graphics have been mostly good. A few hiccups here and there. Audio and image have felt superior to NESN’s remote telecast. I’m sure
@Fenway could go into greater detail as to how they make the sausage so to speak.
Some of the commercials though... when you’re watching 5-6 games per day, they get a BIT repetitive.
The rights package is set to expire soon. Do you want the NHL to remain on NBC or would you like to see ESPN or Fox get another crack at it?
