NHL/NBC Renew Deal

People are probably wondering what I think about this deal. In case you haven’t heard, here’s the basic details:

-9 National Games of the Week
-Flex Scheduling. NHL picks 3 games for each broadcast window at least, NBC picks 1 game 13 days prior.
-All games in HD.
-Playoffs are the same.

I think it’s worth a shot, you know? We’ve gone with the old formula (3 Regional Games) for years. There going to put it in a timeslot on Sunday, and air the games.

Bravo.

Tonight, Devils-Islanders on VERSUS at 7:30. Doc, Brian Engblom and Chris Simpson with the call. Devils will make Dunham look like Roy tonight.
