Don’t forget the production crew cutting to awful angles for extended periods of time.

I swear ESPN is operated by kids trying to get college credits. Also, this guy looks a bit like Nuke after an unfortunate crack pipe incident (too soon?)

Camera operator or announcer? Could be both honestly.

Yeah, the commentary is garbage too.

I actually have experience filming AHL as a volunteer in high school / college and I’m shocked at how the occasional ESPN broadcast has so many technical problems.
Dallas is a weird venue to film because the arena isn’t very steep so you have to zoom in to remove crowd. But there were false graphics up (I.e “Colorado’s first lead in series” and it’s a 1-1 game).
The audio cutting in and out, the main camera losing track, the bad cuts to nothing, and the commentators just talking about Cale Makar’s life story instead of doing play-by-play.
I normally defend ESPN but that was just sloppy overall.

And the guy running the audio.

The one for game 4 was far worse imo
