I'm flipping around the channels, stopped on the NHL Network and am watching NHL Live (the simulcast of one of their radio shows) and noticed one of the hosts Billy Jaffe who also does color for games on the Versus Network is wearing an EA Sports / UnderArmour polo shirt. Its the same one I've seen dev team guys wearing in interviews before.

Coincidence? How would you feel about Jaffe as one of NHL12's announcers?

I haven't seen a whole lot of games called by him but hes young, pretty sharp and knowledgable and has good enthusiasm for the game. I think he would be a pretty good choice alongside the right play-by-play guy if they are changing up the commentary team this year.

Show is on until 1pm EST if you wanna check it out for yourself.
