He shoots, he scores! | Hockey Night in Canada now available in Mandarin

hnic.jpgThat's right! Starting April 9th, CBC's HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA adds some extra special ethnic flavour to their 2008 Playoff Schedule. Fans can tune in to CBCSports.ca to catch live and on-demand broadcasts of select playoff games in Mandarin, for the first time ever during the NHL post-season.

Mandarin play-by-play voice for the 2007 Vancouver Whitecaps' broadcasts Jason Wang will call the plays.

Joel Darling, CBC Sports director of production, said "CBC is committed to providing all Canadians with the most comprehensive coverage of the Stanley Cup Playoffs."

(No word yet on whether Don Cherry will be brushing up on his Mandarin skills....but you'll be the first to know!)
