Sam will be broadcasting the game on the radio. I got to find the radio station and shutoff the sound for the TV… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I wish ESPN didn't bring Barry Melrose back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mess and chelios combined have half of a personality (at least on tv) and I cant stand the guy that hosts the intermissions. also im all for getting women on the broadcasts but can we not try quite so hard? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are good in that they aren’t boring and they sound like pros, but I find Eddie O and Keith to have a really hard time remaining neutral. Heavily anti-Ranger. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I’ve enjoyed the TNT intermission report. If they talked about the Pens controlling play too much, it’s because the Pens controlled the play too much. We still haven’t seen the Rangers’ best. Hope they Rangers bring it round 2.

Sharpshooter Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Keith Jones was a Flyer and Capital, so that's not too surprising. Even though he won a cup here, I don't think Eddie really cared for his Rangers tenure that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillyb Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Eddie O is such a fucking homer. TNT broadcasts have been terrible for first round. Second round will be better since no Shittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was week-to-week with a suspected broken left ankle. I wouldn't expect him for probably six to eight weeks from early May. In other words, Cup Final, at best.

I find the TNT national broadcast to be right down the middle. Solid analysis, and a ton of humor. 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Well, he was also a Penguins player (very briefly) and coach, so he has some ties with that organization. But, he still gave credit to the Rangers where they were due. I thought the criticisms of them weren't unfounded since they really didn't play their best hockey in this series.

Kick save and a beauty Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I agree with the house money POV and also agree that Carolina have played us really well. With all those comeback wins against the Pens maybe this team feels it can continue to do that. It can't. Carolina score goals in bunches as well as any team in the league not named Colorado, Florida or Calgary (against us anyway). We need to get a lead and lock it down and I fear we are really bad at the latter, Igor needs to be better. The Defense needs to be MUCH better and breadman needs to find his authentic game or we may be in for an early bath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I'm not even worried about the announcing team....If Eddie Olzyck was on the 'Canes, then I'd worry. But one thing's for fuckin' A certain: We have to find a way to slow their fore-check down! That team gives you no time or space to get out of your own end of the ice. Their Defense pinches constantly and it's like they have 7 guys on the ice at times. If we can break through that, or slow up their defenseman from getting to the top of the circles when they pinch, we stand as good a chance as any in beating these fuckers!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I think now we can get away from the conspiracy against the Rangers for this round. There is no way in hell that the NHL would want the Canes to advance over the Rangers. Which I would assume that we wouldnt hear more hate against the Rangers from the ESPN/TNT announcers in this round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost millions with the Leafs losing alone. If anything, they'd be in the tank for the Rangers to advance as far as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
