NHL Network will debut a new commentary format for its "NHL Network Showcase" telecast of Red Wings-Penguins on Saturday. Instead of a traditional broadcast call featuring play-by-play and analysis, E.J. Hradek, Jackie Redmond, Mike Rupp and Kevin Weekes will provide conversational commentary from the network's N.J. studio throughout the game. The effort is similar to the "Clubhouse Edition" broadcasts introduced last year by MLB Network, which shares production space with NHL Network.

viewers in Pittsburgh and Detroit will be subject to local blackout rules

added 1:05pm, Below, watch the Wings award the game puck after the win last night.

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
