For us, a big thing, if we're not going to have a commentator there between the benches, if there is space, because priority is commentator first, and then once all those requests are satisfied, if there is room, we will try to put a handheld camera in that spot.
And as you know,
there could be some great vantage points on a replay, seeing faces on the bench up close, or if there's scrums in between the benches, that can be a really great perspective to have.
So that's become, certainly in the playoffs, a priority for Sportsnet that if there's a situation where, again, Craig Simpson, as an example, doesn't want to be between the benches, no problem.
But we would love to have a camera there if there is room.
So the key there is which, whether it's us or TVA, which one is putting out
the play-by-play camera.
That's how that is determined.
I believe it was the case last round, and I believe it's the case this round.
We are putting out our own play-by-play camera.
So in theory, we would have first choice, but again, it becomes a moot point for our crew.
Craig Simpson goes up top.
You know, we're still wishing Renaud Lavoie all the best, but when he does get back,
he would be the man in between the benches there in Montreal.
But I think during the regular season, there are instances where it's TVA that would be the one providing the play-by-play camera, and then they would be considered the primary broadcast there and would have first dibs.
That's a great point you make.
Excellent.
Good work.
Good question, Ben.
