  • Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips December 5, 2013 Rangers-Sabres Preview Associated Press December 4, 2013 If there was the slightest bit of doubt that Henrik Lundqvist was the clear-cut No. 1 goaltender for the New York Rangers, it has been eliminated this week. A day after agreeing to a seven-year contract extension, Lundqvist is likely to return to the ice after a rare two-game stretch on the bench as New York desperately tries to get some momentum going Thursday night against the Buffalo Sabres. "It was never an option for me to leave this club," Lundqvist said after the new deal was announced. "I really want to win the Cup here in New York." This trip to Buffalo precedes a nine-game homestand which will take the Rangers (14-14-0) through Christmas, a stretch Lundqvist would surely welcome. He has a 1.69 goals-against average at Madison Square Garden compared to 3.28 on the road. He hasn't been in net at MSG since Nov. 19 because New York's only two home games since then - also its two most recent games - were started by Cam Talbot even though Lundqvist was healthy. Talbot had been outplaying Lundqvist, going 6-1-0 with a 1.49 GAA through November while the five-time Vezina Trophy finalist was 8-11-0 with a career-worst 2.51 GAA. However, Talbot came back down to Earth on Monday, giving up four goals on 29 shots in a 5-2 loss to Winnipeg. Two days later, the team announced it had agreed to terms on the new deal with Lundqvist worth a reported $59.5 million.

  • BAM Media Release Fall 2015
    ` MEDIA RELEASE The Broadcasters Association of Manitoba Announces Fall 2015 Award Winners, New Board Broadcast Excellence Award and BAM Hall of Fame Award Winnipeg, MB – The Broadcasters Association Of Manitoba honoured two outstanding individuals during their Annual Fall Conference. The event was held Thursday September 24th. BAM President Cam Clark noted “these awards allow us to recognize those who have made significant contributions to our industry. The two recipients receiving awards this fall - have made a lasting impact on the broadcast industry through their management and on-air communications to the community and corporately.” HALL OF FAME - BROADCASTER AWARD JOE PASCUCCI Joe Pascucci was honored with the BAM Hall of Fame Broadcaster Award. This award recognizes lifetime achievement for those individuals who have created a legacy in our industry. Joe was a regular fixture in households across Manitoba for more than 32 years and through all of them, demonstrated an incredible commitment and compassion to Manitoba’s sports scene. When Pascucci was hired by Global TV in 1982 the Toronto born sports broadcaster never imagined he would remain in Winnipeg for another three decades. But as Pascucci said on the eve of his retirement in 2014, he couldn’t help himself. “I was doing so much, every day was exciting. The people were fantastic. I loved it.” There isn’t a sport Joe hasn’t covered. With a calming read and incredible insight he provided analysis of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Winnipeg Jets (hosting Winnipeg Jets hockey on Global) junior hockey, Provincial Championship curling, boxing, and many amateur sports. In 1991 Joe helped create Sportsline, a popular 11 pm show that ran for more than a decade and launched the careers of many broadcasters who are still on TSN and Sportsnet.
