PITTSBURGH, PA — When the Penguins begin the 2023=24 season next month, they will have a new TV broadcast tandem.
According to multiple reports over the Labor Day weekend, play-by-play announcer Steve Mears and analyst Bob Errey will not return to the telecasts. Radio play-by-play man Josh Getzoff is expected to move to the TV side. Radio analyst Phil Borque might join him, although former Penguin Colby Armstrong is expected to play a prominent role on the TV side.
The moves have not been officially announced by the Fenway Sports Group, which is purchasing the Penguins broadcast home AT&T SportsNet and rebranding it SportsNet Pittsburgh as of Oct. 1. But Errey confirmed to The Athletic that he and Mears will not return to the TV broadcasts.
It’s currently unclear who will be the play-by-play announcer on the radio broadcasts, although one possibility would be Mears essentially switching places with Getzoff.
