It was between this, my Hutson or Caufield jersey, but Slaf just felt right! Took me about 26,000 rhinestones and 2 weeks to make

And today I believe

Man having to hear this guy call Cole Hutson “Caufield” 20 times when I should be hearing Pierre Houde during his final years is just hard to swallow.

That’s it. That’s the whole question. The commentary on prime was garbage, but damn the game looked and sounded better. What is up with Sportsnet? Genuinely curious.

I was fortunate enough to see the BUF-MTL game this week at Centre Bell and did the tour of the building on the following day.

First off, excellent tour, and thank you to our tour guide for your knowledge and levity throughout.

If you're a production nerd, it may not be the perfect tour, as some of my questions didn't have readily available answers but, obviously, one could see why the tour was focused on the Habs, and not just the infrastructure.

One large question remained: Why can't we ever hear almost any of the questions in post-game interviews with MSL in the press room?

Answer: It's because the setup is sub-par for the engineer working it, and the post/streaming crew mixing it.

There is an incredibly capable D-Live console in the room (I assume chosen for networking capabilities) with (as far as I could tell- I didn't ask to turn the console on) just a few mics plugged in. It appeared to be the podium(MSL) mic, and 2x Rode M5's pointing vaguely into the room to pick up the reporters.

If you've been in that room before, you know how small it actually is, which leads to an entirely expected outcome: Reporters/media don't even have to raise their voice to have MSL hear/understand the question being asked, so they aren't being picked up on the mic.

I don't know if anyone from the Bell Centre pays any attention to this subreddit, but hey, crazier things have happened so I'll pose a question: Why hasn't anyone employed the Auto Mic Mixer on the DLive and a mic array on the ceiling to improve the post-game press conferences?

It should be easy enough to set up a handful of 'pickup areas' keyed to MSL's Mic weighted as the master and still just send a stereo (or mono) mix for streaming postgame.

I'm in MTL for a few more days and would be happy to come down and chat with any one on the production crew more about this. Feel free to send a DM.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I was born in 1998, and the closest I’ve come to experiencing the thrill of winning the Stanley Cup was in 2021. I’ll always keep nostalgic memory of the moment we clinched the championship against the Golden Knights. I think I cried with joy, and I still remember Gallagher sprinting to go get the puck from the winning goal. Every time I watch a video of this game, it brings a wave of emotion to me. Price was such a good goalie and I feel so bad he never had the ending he deserved.

I can’t even begin to imagine the happiness of winning the cup someday. 🥹🥹

What was your favorite moment?

Can we finally leave this to rest now lol?

I get that he has had a few bad turnovers, and he isn’t exactly looking like a #1 overall, but has it been actually that bad, or are people just doom and gloom? What do you all think?
