Lightning Broadcasts

[Ferreri]

The new Lightning ownership is in place and has made many changes. Hopefully, the broadcast teams will remain the same. Mishkin and Espo on the radio do a great job. Rick and the Chief on TV also are top notch.

Rick Peckham also did well working the Playoffs for Versus.

Let's ask Lightning GM Jay Fe---....um...ok, never mind...

If they stay, Matt Sammon should as well. Hopefully this won't be a case where the idiot nephew of one of the new owners needs a job...

If Mishkin stopped being too much of a homer to the point of sounding like Peter Brady, I wouldn't mind him staying. Otherwise, find someone else who won't sound as if he's George McFly scoring on prom night. As for Numa-Numa boy, uh, I mean, Jay Feaster...good riddance.

Rumor is Rays also moving to 620. That will jeopardize the Lightning deal.

The overlap will only be significant during the NHL playoffs. I'd think that they'd bump the conflicts to 970 or 1250. Happens in a lot of markets.

You might even see the Lightning move to 970. For that matter, these owners are younger, they might want to go to FM. Maybe to Mix or even 98 Rock? The Pittsburgh Penguins games are on 105.9 the X, an Alternative rocker. Hockey draws the youngest demos of any major sport.

CC has plenty of options on this one.

Go ahead and ask Brian Lawton. He will be GM soon enough.
