Ottawa - Sep. 22, 2011 - The Ottawa Senators and TVA Sports announced today the 38-game broadcast schedule for the 2011-12 season. The first season of Senators hockey coverage on TVA Sports begins with Ottawa’s home-opener against the Minnesota Wild on Oct. 11 at 7:30 p.m.
“We’re excited about our partnership with TVA Sports and what this will bring to our francophone audience,” said Senators president Cyril Leeder. “With TVA Sports showing 38 games, we expect that more than 60 Senators regular-season games will now be televised in French, the most we’ve ever been able to provide to our fans.”
TVA Sports took to the airways on Monday, Sept. 12, for its first day on the air. The TVA Sports broadcast team of Pierre Rinfret, Yvon Pedneault and Enrico Ciccone will call the action this season.
"We are happy to bring the Senators to our network right from the start, giving our viewers the opportunity to see the best players in the world. This is a first for the Ottawa Senators and their fans, to have a French broadcasting team on site with our commentators and analysts for local games,” said Pierre Dion, president and chief executive officer of TVA Group Inc.
