Canadian crews here.
Items of note:
The fledgling CTV Sportsnet assumes the national cable rights from TSN for the next four years.
CBC, after all of these years, is in 100% control of their telecasts for the first time as a new multi-year contract is in place. Molstar Communications, which had been the production arm of Hockey Night in Canada, was replaced in total by CBC Sports. The prime sponsor, Molson Breweries, was replace by Labatt.
