Sabrejeff Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Undoubtedly MSG has gone into the crapper.I think the channel is taking a lot of the upstate crowd into effect. After the Yankees left, no one in Central and Western New York watched MSG. Now that they carry Sabres' games there are a lot more viewers over here.

TrueYankee26 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 I actually saw the new FOX BOX when Vs showed the highlights of the Anaheim Ducks vs San Jose Sharks, it was FSN West's coverage BTW trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejeff Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I actually saw the new FOX BOX when Vs showed the highlights of the Anaheim Ducks vs San Jose Sharks, it was FSN West's coverage BTWIt was actually Prime Ticket. The channel logo on the screen read "PTDUCKS".I really liked this icon for hockey. The power plays come up just like the down and distance for football. It also morphs into a different stat such as shots. Information, like the last goal and assists, pops out of the right side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 From what I was seeing on the Ducks' broadcast, it's the best thing that's happened to a hockey broadcast in a long time. I don't need a damn bar across the screen. Just give me the score and the time. I've seen old Ducks-Kings games and lo and behold there was no score on the broadcast, and you could see more action. Honestly if the announcers would do their job and follow the logic that I think it was Chick Hearn told Kings announcer Bob Miller (I could be wrong on that), but give the score every few minutes because there are always new people tuning in. If they followed that logic, then we wouldn't need all this crap on the screen. Also I noticed that I think the PT was orange followed by Ducks.

Still MIGHTY Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I watched the Ducks/Sharks last night as well and it's beautiful.Every aspect of it whether it's during play or off-play stats and boxes and profiles and all that. It's beautiful. The transitions are smooth and clean.I love it.And yeah FSN Prime Ticket was viewed as PTDUCKSSo I assume any other team on Prime Ticket (or possibly FSN West also) might be viewed the same way i.e.PTKINGSPTCLIPPERSPTLAKERSorFSKINGSFSCLIPPERSFSLAKERSThey may keep the "West" rather than the team name, but I guess we can find out tomorrow for the Kings/Sharks game or if anyone is wathing their local FSN affiate today | ANAÂ | LAA | LARÂ | LAL | ASU | CSULB |Â USMNTÂ | USWNT |Â LAFCÂ | OCSC |Â MAN UTDÂ | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Clemente Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I like it, though I prefer scorebugs that have the names stacked on top of each other, like NFL on CBS does and CBC used on NHL games until 2006. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayrider Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 projectjohn's screencap doesn't do it justice. I love the new FSN scoreboard especially for hockey.1. It's simple and easy to read.2. Opens up more real estate for the actual gameLove it! HDNet's scoreboard is the best though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarsHockey Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Dallas Stars showcased the display on Fox Sports Network Southwest tonight. Though we lost with 20 seconds to go in OT. =(Conversation above was an un-seen artifact during the duration i wrote the comments above. 98% of people claim to have "brought sexy back." Well, I'm the 2% that never left.Hometown HeroesDallas Stars- Brenden Morrow // Marty Turco // Loui ErikksonDallas Mavericks- Dirk Nowitzki // Jason Kidd // Jason TerryDallas Cowboys- Terrell Owens // DeMarcus Ware // Terence Newman // Felix JonesTexas Rangers- Ian Kinsler // Elvis Andrus // Marlon Byrd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElwoodCuse Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I like it so far but the real test will be when the Penguins play the Bruins, they always made the colors stupid on that (especially during power plays). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
