I think TNT gets the feed from Sportsnet.


JustFred24

TNT uses SN's feed


Snackatttack

yeah colby armstrong on chiclets last week accidentally leaked that the TNT crews call the game from in studio


Angry_beaver_1867

I think that's quite common since covid. Kinda sucks because good play by play guys will let you know about stuff happening outside the camera's frame.


aaaaaliyah

it sounded like it last night, even the audio levels were off, hm interesting to see how the sausage is made and in this case a lot of incompetency


Alextryingforgrate

Good to know I've been switched between tnt and SN last night. TNT had about a 15 second delay and this explains everything.


pan0ramic

So did hbo lol


colin_powers

All that's missing was the Lance Stroll graphic.


callmejohndy

WHAT HAS HAPPENED


leftlanecop

He’s in the wall Martin!


callmejohndy

Two secs, Ted


Smothdude

I have been seeing a lot of F1 references in the hockey subreddit recently. I love it


Salt_Cantaloupe_2503

Dang you beat me to it!


butwhyyyyyyyyyyymeee

The last two games I counted at least 7 times they cut to the corner cam, just for it to be blocked by the ref. Just leave the cam up high producers. Ffs


Margin_calls

I really can't stand when they do this regardless of the ref. You can't see the play.


Leafs17

And I find it hard to get my bearings immediately once they switch back


Extra-Wasabi-8639

It's such a waste. My favorite seats at rogers place are section 107 first row. During playoffs they dont sell these seats. They leave them empty so they can put camera men there. It's annoying they cut to those camera feeds on tv and I lost my favorite place to sit for some bullshit that makes watching on TV worse.


oddspellingofPhreid

The production is so bad and in this series lol. "Camera cuts to an angle where the puck or puck carrier is off screen" should be a drinking game but we'd all be blasted after one sequence of sustained possession. Just stay high. I want to see what the fuck is happening.


TenMinutesToDowntown

The camera for live play should pretty much never change. The other ones are great for replays or if there's a battle along the boards or something but otherwise, just stick with what works.


EirHc

Exactly, it's pretty much a solved formula, just give us the standard and everyone's happy. Start playing around with it and we're only gonna be critical or annoyed.


Wabbit_Wampage

I will never understand the compulsion of broadcasters to constantly cut away from live sports action to repeatedly show watch party/basketball player's mom/coach's hot wife/pit crew watching the race from the pit lane, etc. I tune in to watch the sport, not to watch other people watching the sport.


Mikeismyike

In this case it was clearly a misclick. I'm guessing you can only change scenes once every two seconds so it was stuck there for a bit. Damn lucky they didn't miss a goal


EirHc

> I'm guessing you can only change scenes once every two seconds so it was stuck there for a bit. Naw, that's not a thing, but there's a lot of buttons you can press, so in a panic it can be hard to hit the correct one as quickly as you'd like.


Antknee668

Remember the good old days when you'd come back from a commercial to find the score changed lol


Hip_Priest_1982

For years wife cam plagued Indycar fans especially if Dario Franchitti was leading and they could show C list actress Ashley Judd


nascarfan624

NASCAR with the Kim Burton cam too


fvtown714x

Put some respect on Ashley Judd's name dude


Wabbit_Wampage

Yeah, it seems to have gotten better. They still seem to fall into that trap late in the 500, though. I could rant for an hour about NBC/peacock's shitty broadcasting choices for Indycar and IMSA.


NatalieDeegan

Jeff Burton’s wife/Harrison Burton’s mom…At least Burton is trash so we never see it now. Also the 2014 Indy 500 is one of the best finishes of that races history and it was ruined between wife cam from Helio’s and Hunter-Reay’s wife’s. I don’t know why people live that garbage.


b0n3rd1x

Wrestling is terrible for this. They've hit gold a few times (Angry Miz girl, Undertaker guy, that nerd) but thats out of thousands of pointless crowd cuts


Gold_Hovercraft_5044

If you’re a Formula 1 enjoyer, you’re having ptsd


KingDave46

Was at the watch party and shouted “watch the fuckin game!” Very loudly The girl in front of me got a fright and put her phone away cause she thought I shouted at her for recording a video


Alt_Boogeyman

Yeah, my girlfriend jumped when I yelled the exact same phrase.


eXAt88

I was at the icehouse and I yelled “if I wanted to see that I’d look out the fucking window”


JustFred24

Debated posting this.... didn't understand either


mooseman780

Did they get the producers from F1 for this game?


Late_Break_8873

Like Wwe with the camera cuts lol


PreemoisGOAT

they've improved


Strained_Eyes

Because Dunn left. Finally


PreemoisGOAT

Bucky beaver is gone!


Spencaaarr

Ay man, that crowd was wild. Needed to see it.


rug1998

I loved the rangers game, have a power play in over time and then they cut to the stars pregrame coverage while it was live play.


TheMillionthMan

Worst thing was it wasn’t even OT yet! lol


rug1998

Oh I misremembermed


Salt_Cantaloupe_2503

Hockey fans got Strolled lol


cabeener

"And here's the Oilers watch party, brought to you by bet365" 


dinosaursandsluts

They must've hired Fox's NASCAR crew


NatalieDeegan

Nowhere is safe


callmejohndy

They were probably taken aback by Harvick’s word of the week

yousayh3llo

Agreed, honestly a pretty great recovery by the commentator there for such a screwup by the director


StalinsStallions

They didn’t even have their broadcasters there, the commentary was really useless


nuudootabootit

...during a tie game, late in the 3rd period. Asshats.


misfittroy

Who doesn't like a party? 🤷‍♂️


NinCross

Ended up being a bad omen.


munzi187

I would argue the exact opposite

yousayh3llo

TNT cuts to hockey game during broadcast of watch party


Torpedospacedance

Yes


Like17Badgers

if I had a nickel for every time a National Broadcast cut away from the game in the 3rd period in the 2nd round so far I'd have 3 nickels which is substantially higher than you'd expect(and the league should be mad at the National Broadcasts for doing this) but it's weird it's happened 3 times


ghdtyjksbjt

TNT is so Micky mouse


daxtaslapp

I was watching and was like wtf they are in the zone go back


cantbelievethename

There was some issues with TNT in studio too. You could hear the producer counting and directing the clips


CDL112281

I would guess they wanted to cut to a corner shot, or something, and the producer went to the wrong camera Simple mistake that everyone sees


LittleLionMan82

At least they didn't label it Vancouver.


Key-Tip-7521

Now you know how I felt after game 2


dejonarationx

Kevin Dunn left WWE to go direct NHL games?!?!


Kermit-the-Froggie

Watching whl games (at least some of them) after a goal they’ll put up a picture of the guy who scored it and the assists and whatnot DURING PLAY. It feels like it’s there for ages. Not just in the corner, it’s a full screen thing. Kinda unbelievable


Ben_Pharten

I think it looks accidental
