Clearly the panel will be replaced with AI Slot machines and more gambling ads.

The problem with HNIC is that they speak about everything BUT hockey to appease the "woke" crowd. It is literal indoctrination. I want to be able to sit down and watch great analysis, game breakdowns etc., player interviews etc.
What do you mean? A middle aged man, drunk in a Bar and playing air guitar isn't a class act???

Elliotte Friedman has never played in the NHL, nor Ron MacLean, or David Amber, or Cabbie.
Oh God...Jackie Redmond is the absolute worst! Luckily she has her looks to distract people from what a horrible and annoying broadcaster she is.I'd take Jackie Redmond, who never played in the NHL either, over all of them.
Assen na yo!

So, you're saying they're just going to use advanced analytics to do the talking and be wrong a lot?Nah, because Rogers/Sportsnet definitely ain't hiring anybody. Increasing expenses is antithetical to their existence.
They'll probably have an "AI" panel next season, that'll tell you the live odds of the game for the entire intermission and how many boosted SGPs they have available.
Here is one segment of what you find on TNT. Not sure what happened with SportsNet's 50 trillion dollar studio where they don't provide actual analysis of the games. Hrudey is definitely the worst of the bunch, comes across as preachy all the time while getting stuff constantly wrong.
The funny thing is the poster forgot to mention that player interviews, panels, etc have never, ever been good in hockey. Get rid of them all, seriously.I'm pretty sure they still do those things.
I mean, not "great".
Cassie campbell sucks I agree.Keep Bieksa and Friedman for sure… I like Botterill as well.
Fire MacLean and Hrudey into the sun… and don’t you f’n dare bring on Cassie Campbell.
nba analysts USUALLY give you honest opinions whether good or negative. Nhl analysts in Canada have all become cheerleaders and scared to call anyone out. Bound to happen when the team owners also own the media conglomerates.You watch an NBA panel and they're light years ahead of whatever the NHL can muster. Bieksa is the only one with a personality and even then the likes of Barkley and Shaq make him look milquetoast.
How many years left on this god forsaken contract?
Yeah, Friedman as a cultural touchstone is really the nadir of Canadian civilization.Bieksa is literally the only personable one of the bunch.
Elliotte Friedman being the face of hockey broadcasting has to be the worst thing to happen to the league in ages
