Petitions are annoying, but I’m hoping some of us will want to sign this one! The goal is simple: Have the National Hockey League create a solution where the local broadcast announcers of the home team handle the broadcast for every nationally-televised game, such as the Stanley Cup playoffs.

    Normally, when we have a national crew come into Seattle to broadcast a game, I’ll just sync the video stream with our radio broadcasters. The national guys are so bad.

      let me summarize the ESPN experience:

      “Connor McDavid, Connor McDavid! McDavid? Connor. Connor Mc? David Connor.”

      Doesnt even matter if he is playing in the game they are showing.

        We have a 5-7 second delay for video so I just pause the video until it syncs with radio. Nothing technical and a bummer it has to he done that way.
