  • Buffalo Sabres Digital Press
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips December 15, 2017 Filppula’s goal leads Flyers to 5th straight win By AARON BRACY Associated Press Dec. 15, 2017 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — No longer struggling, the suddenly confident Philadelphia Flyers are now able to overcome their own blunders. Valtteri Filppula scored the game-winner with 2 1/2 minutes left in the second period and Travis Sanheim netted his first career goal to help the Flyers win their fifth straight game, 2-1 over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night. Brian Elliott rebounded from a costly mistake early in the game to make 19 saves for the Flyers, whose winning streak has come on the heels of a 10-game losing streak. The winning stretch began with a three-game Canadian trip that started with coach Dave Hakstol changing the team’s formation to a more defensive-minded 1-2-2 alignment. Philadelphia (13-11-7) has outscored opponents 19-8 since. Buffalo opened the scoring 1 1/2 minutes into the game thanks to a miscue by Elliott. The Flyers goalie attempted to clear the puck from behind the net, but he passed right to Buffalo’s Zemgus Girgensons. The Buffalo center then passed in front to Ryan O’Reilly, who shot into an empty net for his eighth goal of the season. “A little miscommunication and a bad play on my part,” Elliott said. But the Flyers didn’t get rattled — something that maybe wouldn’t have happened two weeks ago. “You can take a punch better when you have a swagger to your game,” Hakstol said.

All of the team’s televised regular-season games will be broadcast in high definition. | Television | The Sabres and MSG Networks continue a multiyear partnership to telecast Sabres games, in which MSG will own the exclusive local rights to telecast the team’s games. MSG Net- works, an industry leader in production and technology, is the nation’s longest-running re- gional sports network.

In 2013-14, all Sabres telecasts –including games in New York/New Jersey – will be produced and broadcast by the team’s in-house broadcasting teams and will feature the Sabres broadcasters and analysts exclusively. Calling the action on MSG telecasts and on WGR 550 AM will be Foster Hewitt Award winner and Sabres Hall-of-Famer Rick Jean- neret, who embarks on his 42nd year behind the microphone. Rob Ray, a nine-year veteran of Sabres broadcasts, will begin his first season as the full-time color analyst.

As discussed below, the Commission's current policies with regard to broadcast localism properly allow licensees the flexibility to address the concerns oftheir communities in inventive and inspiring ways, as demonstrated by the attached summary ofcommunity-oriented programming and activities. There is no reason to impose new regulations on the industry in this regard that potentially would diminish, and not enhance, local community service activities by broadcasters. I. Localism and Deregulation of Radio Content "The concept oflocalism was part and parcel ofbroadcast regulation virtually from its inception." Deregulation ofRadio, 84 FCC 2d 968,994 (1981) ("Radio Deregulation Order"). The Commission has long recognized that, in serving the needs ofits community, a broadcaster should be afforded some latitude in tailoring its programming to the needs ofits listeners.

More than twenty years ago, therefore, the Commission correctly eliminated its non-entertainment programming guidelines for commercial broadcast radio, requiring only that stations offer programming responsive to the issues ofconcern to the station's listeners, as discerned by the station licensee.
