NHL has the least friendly broadcast packages and announcers I've ever seen in a sport. No attempt to explain anything, lots of jargon and penalties that don't seem to make any sense to anyone new to the sport.
Not entirely the broadcasters fault, they can't feature and introduce lines because teams don't have to produce them like the NFL, and players go on/off the ice so much it's hard to show how the last line did, how it's done tonight vs the line that's coming on (this could be really good information, but requires a creative solution).

It's the job of the analysists to get the laymen into the sport by explaining things inbetween the play by play announcer. NBC and SN have garbage analysts compared to the top markets regulars during the regular season.
The ref calling must be great on the vegas fan side.
Someone posted somewhere that Montréal scored 5 goals when in penalty box and 4 while have man advantage. They don't have penalty called so they have to score somewhere.

Ya Friedman says Anaheim is in big time. Just seems crazy to me if they trade Zegras or Drysdale. Those guys looked really good. If they some how get him without trading either of them, Ill be shocked. And Buffalo owners shoulder be fired lol.

Sounds about right. In a way i'd prefer LA gets him cause that might make Kupari or Turcotte available, but my moneys on the Ducks which is kind of a weird fit to me.

You're not kidding. That was epic. Islanders deserved that win. They caught up on shots on net, and out performed for the last 30+ minutes. That was a great game.
Oh, I'm longing for Isles Habs final. It would be so epic.

This is a bullshit situation. The refs are working hard for Vegas. Don't call anything, until you can call something on Montreal AND Vegas, and then make it an Vegas powerplay. What bastards.
