Matty, I think it's just a reminder that there are no guarantees in life and just because you have a job today doesn't mean you'll have a job tomorrow. I experienced something along those lines late last year (although I had a little bit of a heads-up from other people) that my time at BC Hydro was coming to an end. Luckily, I have a skill set that is still in quite high demand and I was able to land another opportunity in pretty short order (less than a month after being let go). The other important thing is to build up a nest egg (if possible) to fall back on when unemployment rears its ugly head.

Something to watch for from Rogers next season ... the elimination of dual broadcasts ... ie what theyre doing with flames/canucks ... home team does the broadcast and its shown in both markets ... only for western canada of course :nod:

Can we get the Canucks guys for all Flames / Canucks games regardless of location? Rick Ball is fine, but I have to say I'm done with both Kelly Hrudey and Cassie Campbell-Pascall

If cmac does indeed join the canucks in media relations noone can say he didnt earn it with his past year full of brown nosing the team.

Never hosted a show but as boss (station director) put himself on the air to wash rinse repeat on bennings balls day in and day out.

/and dont forget he turfed his main competitor for the canucks job in “thank you jim” james cybulski lol

Not officially confirmed, but reports are that Jim Hughson will not be doing play-by-play for Rogers/HNIC this season.
