Providence Bruins Broadcast Network

The Providence Bruins are now on four stations. The new "flagship" station is WARL-1320. New "network" affiliates include WBLQ-88.1, WQRI-88.3, and WNRI-1380. Kevin Boryczki is the new play-by-play voice for the P-Bruins. He replaces Corey Masse, who is now Manager of Media Relations for the Washington Capitals. Corey was also seen on NESN during Boston Bruins broadcasts. Fill-in radio voice and media/public relations manager Adam Alper is no longer with the P-Bruins.

Question concerning the two non-commerical radio affiliates: how do WBLQ and WQRI handle their spot breaks when WARL airs "network" spots? Do they just fill with PSAs or promos? I didn't know until tonight about the new "network" when I flipped on WDDZ-550 and found Radio Disney programming. I just happened to flip on WARL and heard the P-Bruins post game show. I'm also surprised a college radio station (WQRI) would air professional sports play-by-play. Also, doesn't WBLQ do play-by-play of Westerly High School football? If they still do, how will the P-Bruins broadcasts be handled during the high school football season? Will WBLQ air the Westerly football on 96.9 or vice versa?

Just some side notes:

-94 HJY & FUN 107 are there two FM affiliates now that will be doing promotions and what not with the team.

-Adam Alper Resigned from the Providence Bruins, and no one in the organization knows what he is doing (Maybe sharpening skates at Manny's Hockey Shop in Warren RI...thats what he did before the P-Bruins hired him!).

Just some side notes I figured were worth mentioning.
