RyanMcD29 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Kinda expected with the switch to NBC Sports Network coming next week, but if you put on Versus right now there's a new scorebug for their NHL coverage. Could see it carry over to NBC for both the NHL and NFL come next week Twitter: @RyanMcD29 // College Crosse: Where I write, chat, and infograph lacrosse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Oops, posted this in the game thread.New NHL on NBC graphic package. I like it! Simpler, reminds me of early 2000s NBC Sports. They've stopped spelling out city names, which was nice, because "Philadelphia" was always kind of hard to fit in. Still don't think they need the logos or colors next to the abbreviations. That's not information we need. To that I would add that they still need to get rid of the ugly NFL on NBC font in a few spaces: pretty sure I saw in on the "scoring chances" dropdown, and there it is again when showing Pierre McGuire. Also, they still need to get rid of Pierre McGuire. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Get rid of the logos and all that space around "1st." You can take a third of the width off the scorebar and have even more unadorned screen. Nice little goal animation. Also nice that the Caps scored! EDIT: The penalty clocks are really bad. Too compressed next to the game clock (guess that's what the space is for, huh). They look better when they're beneath the power-play team. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejeff Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I actually really like the penalty clock. Leaves the space under the team to provide info even during power plays, limiting the anount of animations in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justie Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I like it except for the space between 1st and the time remaining but other than that It's pretty good.

Raymie Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 The current NBC look is just too overused now. I think it might be original from when NBC SNF launched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Krabs Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 The FSN channels seemed to have taken a page from the NHL on NBC's idea of using the full city name on the scoring bugs. They're doing that for their respective teams' broadcasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're doing that for their respective teams' broadcasts.Yea, and personally, I think it sucks. FSN's whole graphics package has pretty regularly gone downhill over the past decade. I think their best look in recent memory was the one-liner scoreboard at the top with the regular block font, and city abbreviations. But I guess they have to constantly change things to keep things fresh, so I can't really blame them.

Perfect Zero Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 This is a lateral for me. I see the differences, it's just not enough for me to like or dislike it. The space around the period number is a bit of a distraction though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabrejeff Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 One thing I didn't like was 'SHOOTOUT' spanned the whole time/period area (I liked that particular part) but the 'FINAL/SO' was scrunched all the way to the right of that part (where the time/PP would be).
