Women's hockey is hockey in its purest form: speed, skill, and passion. This past week at the IIHF Women's World Championship, however, we were reminded that the mainstream media coverage of the sport still has a lot of improvement to do in order to catch up with the quality of the on-ice product.
There are many who know a lot about women's hockey and have amazing insight into the game and its players. There are broadcasters with a depth of experience in play-by-play. There needs to be more teamwork between these two groups in order to put forth a more respectful and entertaining finished product.
