Hockey Night in Canada

I've never even seen a complete show and I can tell you that this is the best hockey show ever. I wish I had a satellite just so I could watch this show on Saturday Nights. Every Canadian hockey fan watches "Hockey Night in Canada" and every American Hockey fan only wishes "NHL Tonight" could compare. There is no comparison to what our neighbors to the north have.

Hockey Night In Canada is the best hockey show on TV. It's better then NHL on FOX, (Although FOX is cool), and better than all the hockey games on ESPN, it's just too awesome, plus the theme music is the best. Just remember if you're in Canada on Saturday Nights, switch to CBC, and watch Hockey Night In Canada!

As a television producer myself, I know a fair bit about television, and how so many things could go wrong. The CBC has done an unbelievable job when it comes to sports coverage, and I believe that HNIC's coverage is by far superior to the american networks. I will give ESPN, and Fox credit though, they do a great job... the glowing puck was and I'm sure you already know a bad idea. Hey... CBC has been doing this since forever, it's no wonder their coverage is better.

I think just about every household and every family in Canada must have this show on their television sets every Saturday night, it seems that it must be about the most popular Canadian TV show in the history of the CBC network.

I had no idea how old it was either, apparently it started way back in 1952? Wow that's a long time to be broadcasting the same show on the same network.

In a way it is sad that it is moving to another network soon I just hope that they are able to keep the show just as good as it is and don't change too much.

Not a huge fan of Don Cherry though.

There are many reasons why, at 37 years old, I am still single. Perhaps it is because I am too picky. Perhaps because I am not willing to put up with the probing and BS of dating.

Or perhaps, it's because I'd much rather spend a Saturday night watching Hockey Night In Canada than going out trolling for women who aren't watching Hockey Night In Canada themselves. This is a classic catch-22: I can't meet new women because I'm watching great play-by-play from Bob Cole and Harry Neal, as well as expert commentary on Satellite Hotstove, and of course, the tandem of show host Ron MacLean and studio commentator Don Cherry, who's first period intermission segment "Coaches Corner" is the best 5 minutes of the week; and if I were to go out and seek out women when I would much rather be home watching Hockey Night In Canada, the women out there obviously don't like hockey, or else they'd be at home watching Hockey Night In Canada, and who would want to be involved with a woman that doesn't like hockey? So, unless the people at the CBC website can come up with a dating service designed for men and women in North America who's first requirement is to be Hockey Night In Canada viewers, I'm afraid I will continue to be single...

In all seriousness, not having hockey was awful last year. Hey NHL and NHLPA, don't do it ever again. God bless hockey.
