Let It Reign

This weekend, I am making my debut as the play-by-play broadcaster for the Ontario Reign. For those who do not know, the team is a hockey club in the ECHL, which is basically the "AA" version of minor league hockey. The team is affiliated with the Los Angeles Kings of the NHL.

This season, I will be broadcasting all the home games for the Reign, and starting tomorrow night, they begin a streak of 7 straight games at home. So, as a favor to me, I ask that if you can, please listen in to at least some of a game and let me know what you think. Here is the Reign's schedule over the next week (all times are Pacific time):

Friday, October 30th - 7:30 PM vs. Las Vegas Wranglers
Saturday, October 31st - 7:00 PM vs. Bakersfield Condors
Sunday, November 1st - 5:00 PM vs. Las Vegas Wranglers
Wednesday, November 4th - 7:00 PM vs. Stockton Thunder
Friday, November 6th - 7:30 PM vs. Victoria Salmon Kings
Saturday, November 7th - 7:00 PM vs. Victoria Salmon Kings
Sunday, November 8th - 5:00 PM vs. Alaska Aces

So, how do I listen to the game, you ask? Well, it's pretty simple. Just click this link. Once there, you will have the choice to either pay a fee and get the video along with the audio or to listen to just the audio for free. If you want both, click "Click Here." If you want just audio, click "Ontario Reign Streaming Audio." The audio will open in a separate media player.

The feed is broadcast over the B2 Network online and will not be available until between 5 and 10 minutes before the start of the game. So, go to the page around 7:20/7:25 PST or so Friday night and you should be able to get the audio. I'm very excited for the opportunity and can't wait to get started tomorrow.


In other news, my appearance on Citi Cable 3's "The Sports Desk" went pretty well on Tuesday and the show has been broadcast over the airwaves since Wednesday. The people at the station put the video up online, but there was a recording error and the video has a full-screen graphic over it. They are aware of the problem and should have it fixed at some point tomorrow. When they do, I will post it here.

Until then, I hope you all get a chance to tune in to some exciting Ontario Reign hockey soon and look forward to your thoughts on the broadcast!
