Rogers Sportsnet has the Hockey That Matters when it comes to coverage of the 2008-2009 NHL regular season.
With a total of 206 regular-season games, over half of which will be in High Definition, Sportsnet will present advertisers with the strongest hockey schedule, one with more regular season games than TSN and CBC combined. Sportsnet’s four channels allows advertisers to purchase national or regional packages.
"Not only does Sportsnet have the most regular-season NHL games - but we have the best games because every one of our games features the home team,” says Sportsnet’s David Ballingall, Vice President, Marketing & GM, Sportsnet.ca. “That means an engaged, passionate viewer who makes Sportsnet games appointment television. That’s why we brand it "The Hockey That Matters".
This year Sportsnet will broadcast 28 Toronto Maple Leafs games, more than any other any Canadian broadcaster. Sportsnet is also the home of the Ottawa Senators (40 games), Calgary Flames (46 games), Edmonton Oilers (47 games) and the Vancouver Canucks (45 games).
“Since every game will be aired live, Sportsnet’s hockey broadcasts will be viewed live, making them virtually PVR proof,” says Ballingall. “All of which provides the strongest hockey package in Canada – The Hockey That Matters.”
