Moustachio Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Q: Are John Shorthouse & John Garrett calling all Canucks games this season?A: No, they are only on contract to broadcast regional sportsnet pacific and regional sportsnet Vancouver hockey broadcasts which are subject to outside regional blackout restrictions. National broadcasts will have a different set of commentators, which will be announced on week to week basis. Q: What channels will the games be broadcasted on?A: 44 Regional Canucks games this season will be broadcasted on Sportsnet Pacific. 4 will be broadcasted on Sportsnet Pacific's Companion Channel: Sportsnet Vancouver Hockey. The remaining 34 Games will be broadcasted on City TV, Sportsnet One, Sportsnet 360, Sportsnet Pacific, Sportsnet West, Sportsnet East, Sportsnet Ontario, CBC, and TVA Sports. Check this thread for weekly updates. So to confirm, does that mean we'll have Shorthouse/Garrett for 48 games of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 Update (September 18th, 2014): Jon Abbott calling pre-season games for the Canucks, which could mean that Shorthouse and Garret could be calling Nat'l pre-season broadcasts. Do not call me on it quite yet however. -Shaelon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2SKATES1STICK Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I feel like the same number of people will watch games regardless of commentators, and the ones annoyed by some will just mute the TV or not pay attention to them. So then I don't really see the point in knowing who is commentating beforehand, seeing how you're gonna watch the game anyways. I suppose I'd rather save my time and enjoy the surprise.

rotiman187 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I don't mind Garret, on the other hand it will be nice to hear less of Shorthouse. Never have been a fan of his since he took over for Hughson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 It appears that all 6 televised pre season games will be called by John Shorthouse & John Garrett as per Dan Murphy. Tweet source to appear within 30 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua59 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 He is from Ontario I think..went to Ryerson...came here and worked until the mid 90s then returned to Toronto and TSN...he hosted Sportspage locally with Taylor, BMac and Shorthouse....I find his play by play so monotone. You got that right. He's a good sports talk host and it stops there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Another update, .Scott Moore @MooreScottmoore 5m Hockey on @sportsnet 360 starts tonight with @VanCanucks home to San Jose. Won't be revealing all new production toys till Oct 8 though. So no national broadcasters, no changes to the production format, will be like watching games last season for now.

FireGillis Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I sure hope not too many games are shown on snet 360 as I don't pay for the HD version of that channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erkayloomeh Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Is center ice pack no longer going to be available? I am living in a campsite in northern Alberta and have no WiFi. (Thought game center live might be an option but my bell turbo stick is very slow and I have to pay a lot for data) so I will only have satellite TV. From what I understand here is that most of the games will be blacked out for me Is that correct? Can someone help me out here please? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyhee Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I've been listening to the preseason games on the radio, at least until turning it off after the first period against Phoenix. The radio play by play has been such that I don't know what's happening in any sort of detail-don't know who's taking faceoffs, what lines are on the ice, who the penalty killers are, even some of the time who just delivered a hit or took a shot. Sometimes I'd know who was on the ice by hearing one name during the play and knowing what the line combinations were expected to be, but it was frustrating to have to wait hoping to hear a name and then piece together who else was likely on the ice. Anybody else out there listening to the radio play by play? I'm finding myself looking forward to times when Shorthouse isn't required on tv. tyhee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
