(From Puck the Media)

CBC continues to help grow the game of hockey across the country, with the ninth annual Tim Hortons Hockey Day in Canada on Saturday, Feb. 21 at 12 noon ET. Ron MacLean will front the broadcast from the Memorial Civic Centre in Campbellton, New Brunswick - the host location for the unofficial Canadian hockey holiday. The 2009 edition of Tim Hortons Hockey Day in Canada will also continue its multicultural tradition, providing select NHL games in Cantonese, Italian and Punjabi languages.

... Headlining the day is the NHL All-Canadian tripleheader, beginning at 3 p.m. ET, with the Canadiens facing off against the Ottawa Senators at the Bell Centre in Montreal. This match-up will also be available in Cantonese, with Alex Chum of OMNI Television providing play-by-play at CBCSports.ca.

... Parminder Singh and Harnarayan Singh will be on-location for the first time at the Air Canada Centre to call the Toronto/Vancouver match-up in Punjabi, available at CBCSports.ca.
