1988-89 NHL Season
Canadian crews here.
First, a note: The CBC along with Molson signed a six-year contract with the NHL. This was a landmark deal in that the CBC had editorial control over the contract and not the Canadian Sports Network/McLaren Advertising. CSN was now reformed into Molstar Communications. The money from this contract was distributed among all 21 NHL teams as opposed to the previous contracts that were disbursed solely to Canadian based teams (excluding the Quebec Nordiques). On air talent would no longer wear Hockey Night in Canada specific sportcoats, the familiar ice blue jackets with the HNIC stick/puck logo on the breast pocket. They would wear a new royal blue CBC Sports blazer with a new CBC Sports crest on the breast pocket. The name of the telecast was now officially identified as "Molson Hockey Night in Canada on CBC." On air score graphics would feature a Molson product label (usually Molson Export for Montreal telecasts, Molson Canadian everywhere else) as well as the CBC Sports logo. Plugs for other CBC programming during the game commentary, previously taboo, was now permitted. Graphic fonts, which heretofore wildly varied by region, were now standardized. Production of telecasts were radically beefed up and updated.

American crews here.
Notes:
As with the new Canadian deal, the NHL signed a three year $50 million+ deal with a proposed cable entity called SportsChannel America after spending the previous three seasons with ESPN. While the money with "SCAM" was double what ESPN had been paying, and the number of games televised would increase significantly, the exposure would be a fraction of what ESPN had been able to deliver. SCAM went on the air on October 1, 1988.
Where telecasts are shown as "regional", it was standard practice at SCAM to show the opposite game on tape delay. During the first two rounds of the playoffs, games were usually televised regionally with a game not seen live tape delayed immediately following the live game.
