I hate when a game I want to watch ends up on ESPN! Especially Steve Levy!

I can’t believe some people were actually excited for ESPN to start broadcasting games.

Overlaying players’ names whenever they touch the puck on the powerplay isn’t distracting at all. If only players would wear jerseys with their names and numbers on them so we could tell who they are the rest of the time!
Between that and the digital scoreboards making players disappear, they’ve really managed to capture what it feels like to watch a glitchy videogame.

ESPN thinks I’m just some dumb hick. They said that to me at a dinner.

ESPN is Disney so they try and reach people who may not watch or are just starting to watch hockey. Also, still better than NBC. Pierre, anyone?

You’re not kidding! I finally got ESPN+ in mid-January, just in time for the CBJ/Flames game in Calgary, since it wasn’t being shown here locally (so, I was able to watch it on ESPN+). Holy crap! It was all, “Johnny Gaudreau this” and “Johnny Hockey that!” They talked about him like he was THE only player playing in that ENTIRE game that day. Pre-game and during the game. At first, as a CBJ fan, I enjoyed it, and thought to myself it was a good thing the Flames fans in Canada couldn’t see this broadcast, or they’d be pissed. But after awhile, even as a CBJ fan, I got tired of it. I love Johnny Hockey, but good grief, it was a CBJ/Flames game with MANY players contributing, not the Johnny Hockey Show! It made me wonder if they bothered to learn who any of the other players were.
