It just doesn’t work for hockey.
I'd like to see the TNT studio get a run at that because I watched from 8-9:30 before the Pens game came on and I was nauseated by Bucci & Weekes within 5 minutes. Weekes sounded like he had never seen a goal before and every player that made any sort of play was 'a great addition' to whatever new team he was on. It's almost like the producers (and I know the guy who produced that for ESPN last night) told them to break out as much fake excitement as possible. I feel like we'd get a lot more measured commenting from the TNT crew.

Bucci and Weekes left to their own devices is enough to make anyone sh*t a platypus...I gave it 10 minutes and had to just go back watching a real game...

The studio folks would be better off just throwing to each game and letting the local play by play team take it from there.

Yeah, I basically had it on mute, but it was nice to see the end of the 3rd and OT of the Pens game in full.

Yes that's basically what Red Zone is. Hanson has a little commentary but not much. Bucci and Weeks didn't know what to do when someone scored, they tried too hard to make it a big deal. Less is more in this case imo

Gross.

I'd rather it be 5 on 5 and somehow incentivize a win rather than playing for a shootout/tie. And stop bastardizing it with gimmicks.
Or just call it a tie at the end of regulation. That worked just fine for a long time.

And no loser point. Actually I like the shoot out. It’s the 3 on 3 that needs work.

Back to 4on4, 3 points for a regulation win, 2 points OT win, 1 point for a shootout win. Loser gets zilch. Obvs wouldn't happen

Pens got embarrassed by the Oilers who get embarrassed by the BJs.

Apparently Colorado is missing 6 of their top 9. That's some bad injury luck this early

OV lookin like he wants to break the goal record this season. Must be nice to be surrounded by what appears to be a pretty decent team.
