Since the owners of the network also effectively own two teams, those two teams tend to get prioritized over the others. That in of itself has been a source of frustration. They also have some original programming both sports and otherwise. That same company also owns the Rangers and the Knicks, so there are features for them. As the network is a part of the Madison Square Garden Company - which owns MSG - they have plenty of features associated with the history of the arena. They also either broadcast games or shows involving the Sabres (mostly in upstate NY), the New York Red Bulls, the New York Liberty, and the New York Giants (mostly a review show: 1st & 10).

Both teams are part of a group that also holds the TV rights for New York Rangers and New York Knicks games. MSG Networks has the local television rights to the Devils and the Islanders. Why they are with MSG is tied into how they got to their current position. Let’s start with television and a bit of background. To that end, they deserve their own post. Besides, whether you watched or heard one or hundreds of games, many fans have strong opinions about them. It is possible to be a fan without following the news or blogs it is much harder to do so without paying attention to any broadcast. They also have a direct role in being a fan of this team since they are presenting the Devils games. The broadcasts, on purpose or otherwise, reflect how the organization is presented. They are providing information to an audience.

They are media in terms of providing the game, commentary, and initial reactions to what will or has happened. I did not go into the the broadcasts because they deserve special focus. In general, I think the coverage is quite good between team-independent, team-provided, and fan-driven sources for news and analysis. I went into some detail about how we got to where we are. La Greca also hosts his own hockey specific podcast “Game Misconduct.” Anyone who has ever listened to him be the Michael Kay Show’s resident hockey fan can see just how knowledgeable he is about all aspects of the game and the NHL.Yesterday, I wrote at length about the media coverage of the New Jersey Devils in its current state.

Cangi even had a radio show at ESPN 98.7 as well. La Greca’s resume also looks a lot like Cangialosi’s before he got the Devils’ job.

There already is some type of professional relationship there. Shaya might be at a disadvantage for not being an MSG employee, so why is Don different? La Greca’s radio broadcast can be heard on MSG Radio. He doesn’t have to apologize for chasing that bag. Anyone who listens to the radio show also knows he grew up a New Jersey Devils’ fan, but it was the New York Rangers who offered him a job. La Greca clearly showed he has the skillset needed for the position. Make all the Hudson River Rivalry comments you want. In addition to being cohost of the Michael Kay Show on ESPN 98.7 he’s also the main radio play-by-play voice of the New York Rangers. The man who jokingly calls himself “Michael Kay’s side kick” is a surprising, yet logical, contender for the job.
