comcast has the game listed on the plus channel again, as well as the nhl channel
that's what you get with the on ice microphones :snicker:
I heard it, but I didn't catch who said it. Was it the ref?
So....what happened to oshie??
Tooth get caught in elbow pad?
Not sure, but I've a feeling he'll be fine. I did see a spot of blood on the ice under his chin.
Yeah i saw the blood too
And he's back on the ice! ;D
Joe B. called McElhinney Pekka Rinne. :snicker:
apparently the Caps can't afford a microphone for the reporters to use in the post game, it would be nice to be able to hear the questions that Reirden is answering
That was a pleasant surprise! PK was bomb!! Too many fucking penalties, but last year we probably lose that one on special teams.. Holts was in Beastmode tonight!
I've thought about this in the past. IMO it's the reporter's job to capture the audio/video. Also, I think it would be rather noisy to use anything but a directional mic to try and pickup the various speakers in the room and it would again fall upon the reporting crew to aim this. They would likely still miss the beginning of each question until they determine who to point to.
Even IF the teams provided a microphone you would then have to deal with the logistics of getting that audio to each reporter and editing your captured audio to include it. A big complicated mess for sure. It is surprising that Comcast doesn't at least try to capture this for their shows. I'm not sure how many reporters are in that area, but I expect it could be a lot.
I notice a lot of phones are used to record these interviews, though some use TASCAM recorders and the like. Maybe someone could write an app for doing this. I bet you could write an app that captures a single mic and distributes it to all those nearby using the app. Someone could be stationed beside the interviewee tasked to aim at the mic appropriately and the app would coincidentally merge the audio with each of the receivers. I'll bet the media would pay for something like that. I know my TASCAM DR-40 recorder could record two inputs onto separate tracks at once and even merge them later if you want. It cost less than $200.
Damn right AJ, and good point Alta!
At least when the games are at home, Comcast could spring for ONE microphone!!!
At least for the room where the coaches press conference is! I’ve seen the room and it’s not that large at all.
All that Comcast would have to do, is to employ a good quality Omni-directional, or cardioid, recording mic, like a Neuman, or Sennheiser, etc.
These low-noise, high-sensitivity mics, can be used in a single, or stereo, (two mics), overhead, application, in the same way they record a large chorus! They are used to get the entire ambient atmosphere of all the collective voices!
No, it will not be anything close to recording quality, but this is known in advance, and is simply for the purposes of recording the ambient speaking atmosphere of the reporters! It’s actually one of the easier things to pull off in audio recording, because you’re not having to meet stringent parameters of equalization, and the like!
The only other thing that I think might be a reason why they DON’T do it, as a general service to their broadcast, is if somehow the individual reporter has some kind of LEGAL CLAIM to his individual question, for royalty, reputation, or copyright purposes or something! Who knows??
But it’s been going on for years, and it’s bullshit!!
Rush
Rush, why are you surprised at Siegenthaler's drastic improvement. His entire NHL career to date consists of 63 games; he's still well within "his rookie season." It isn't fair to expect guys like him to come into the league as finished products. If nothing else, it takes a certain amount of time to acclimate oneself to the faster tempo of the NHL. And it's a commonly understood that defensemen take more time to adjust than forwards.
Not every promising defensive prospect turns out like Bowey.
Panik is another story. I don't mind if he is in a drought, but I don't see the desire and effort. A lot of times, he just seems to be coasting and not really pressing very hard. If that is going to be the case, I'll take Boyd all day long.he should be traded
I have been impressed with Ziggy going back to last year. I think he is a top 4 D on most teams. Very poised and hopefully he still has to fill out a bit and can be more physical in years to come. I heard the guys on the NHL radio channel talking about the Caps and how solid they were, but that they might be looking to add a Dman like Greene on NJ - however they pointed out how well Ziggy had played.
