On Thursday, The Athletic released its annual NHL broadcast survey rankings, in which it polls its national audience of readers to vote for their favorite play-by-play and color commentator pairings of each local NHL broadcast. Daniels and Redmond, the TV voices of the Red Wings since 1997 (when Daniels arrived in Hockeytown), were voted as the best broadcaster pairing in the NHL in the survey that had "roughly 7,000" responses.
