Harry Neale joining Sabres broadcast crew

October 1st, 2007 Media, Sabres

neale.jpg Longtime CBC Hockey Night In Canada announcer HARRY NEALE will be joining Rick Jeanneret in the Buffalo Sabres broadcast booth, according to this report in today’s Toronto Star. The story is also being confirmed on CBC’s website and an official announcement will be coming from the Sabres sometime today.

The 70 year old Neale has been a mainstay on the Hockey Night in Canada telecasts for over 20 years, often pairing up with play by play announcer Bob Cole and has participated in the Stanley Cup broadcasts during his entire tenure. Neale actually lives in the Buffalo area. The Sabres have scored a real coup in bringing Neale to Buffalo from a national media outlet and should make for a great pairing with Rick Jeanneret.
