I was just watching highlights from last night's Red Wings game and was surprised to see the Wings' play-by-play announcer (Ken Daniels?) calling the game from between the benches. I've been watching hockey a long time and can't recall ever seeing or even hearing of this before. Of course, it's become quite common for color commentators be stationed there, but how does one possibly call play by play from there? I would think that it'd be hard to read players' numbers and see around players. Daniels gets my respect for even trying this, much more if it's a common thing for him.
(fast forward to 6:16)
Is this as odd as it seems to me or less uncommon than I realize? Is every Red Wings broadcast from this new arena done in this manner?
