I have one complaint for the cameramen doing the Jersey-Pitt series: Show
the shots, not the hits. On more than one occassion the camera zoomed in
on a check along the boards while the puck was in the slot. They panned
back to show the rebound. Maybe Mom's camera people were a little more
experienced.
