The NHL on TNT is slated to begin its second season, and studio analyst Wayne Gretzky is looking forward to another season.
In a feature story with The Hollywood Reporter, Gretzky remarked about how quickly the studio crew gelled in 2021.
“We are used to being in the locker room and used to trying to get on the same page and pull together, and I think that is beneficial in the sense that Anson (Carter) and Biz (Paul Bissonnette) didn’t know me and I really didn’t know them, but the fact that Rick (Tocchet) and I are such good friends, they saw the banter and the relationship and debating that Rick and I have, and everybody else could kind of conform to that pretty smoothly and quickly,” The Great One said. “We aren’t going to agree on everything, but that is what makes for good TV.”
“I don’t always have all the answers, and those guys don’t hesitate to razz me a little bit, that is what makes the show fun,” Gretzky added.
The NHL on TNT begins tonight as the network will air a doubleheader featuring the Boston Bruins facing the Washington Capitals and the Chicago Blackhawks playing the reigning Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche.
