Canucks looking to hire Green isn't great news anyways lol and not official Common sense isn't always common. We have a few days without hockey between the Leafs getting eliminated and the second round starting. I took a look at TSN and there's a section on the Leafs below the top headlines (Oilers/Ducks, Andersson, and Karlsson's injury leading the way) and then a bit more about the Oilers than a few articles on the Canucks and Green. Seems pretty well spread across a few Canadian teams to me. But sure OP, give TSN more press about how you think they suck when all it did was get us to go look at their site and prove you wrong.

In my first 10 years after arriving in Canada, I honestly thought it was the Toronto Sports Network. I was shocked when I found out it wasn't. It's not hard to update websites' content based on source IP address. So if you are coming from BC, maybe adjust the articles to focus more on Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary.

nuckin_futz Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Can't say it bothers me. It is what it is and there's other options. Though I must say I did find it funny when we played EDM in pre season and beat them 5-3. Stetcher even scored a beauty goal and 2 assists and all the highlights were of McDavid who did nothing. Not 1 single Canucks highlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I get quite a kick out of the Ontario accents that all of their newsreaders (other than Darren) have. Never fails to put on grin on my face. Cute accent eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I will never cheer for the leafs no matter what the scenario is. never saw a jersey thrown on the ice in Vancouver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought with the Leafs out of the playoffs, we'd finally get to the end of the Toronto Sports Network for this year... but nope, on the eve of the beginning of Round 2, here's what the TSN.ca website looks like: That top story is about McDavid and Draisatl, but the rest belong to the centre of the universe. Exactly why I just can't bring myself to pull for this team. Canada has 7 teams and the leafs get at least half the media's time. Makes me nauseous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not hard to update websites' content based on source IP address. So if you are coming from BC, maybe adjust the articles to focus more on Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary. Flames locker clean out was April 21st. I did not browse TSN on that day, but I wonder how much content was Flames. Here is a screen shot from April 21st in the evening. Video doesn't get archived, but the mix of content is there - considering it was a game day for the Leafs. It is hard IF you don't have a lot of staff to write this regional content. Who is going to write all this regional content for Vancouver, Edmonton, and Calgary? Bell is already pretty lean as it is. The most recent screen shot has quite the variety of content. NBA with the main headline Grizzlies heading 2 Send heading 3 Leafs are 6th on the Top Headlines list Video has some Canucks in it for Green. (Clearly took time to write/film the story) Lots of Sens coverage for video. Total Leafs content before the webpage fold: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 The bias continues... Take a look at the videos on TSN's main page... this one is great... "McDavid, Matthews highlight 2017 NHL Award winners" Matthews? Seriously? McDavid won the Hart, Art Ross and Lindsay awards. Yes, McDavid was a highlight. Now let's look at Matthews. He won the Calder. ONE trophy. Oh, you mean the same number of trophies as Bobrovsky, Gaudreau, Anderson, Torterella, Poile, Burns, Bergeron, Foligno, Hamonic, and Crosby? Yup, Matthews stood out over all the others for sure... especially the most emotional moment of the night... Anderson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
