The Stanley Cup playoffs return to USA Network Wednesday for the first time since 1985, with Kenny Albert and Pierre McGuire calling Game 1 of Islanders-Capitals.
(USA's coverage will be blacked out in the New York-area, where the game can be seen in MSG Plus.)
The announcers the last time USA Network carried Cup playoff games? Analyst Gary Green and Al Albert, Kenny's uncle.
Neil Best first worked at Newsday in 1982, returned in 1985 after a detour to Alaska and has been here since, specializing in high schools, college basketball, the NFL and most recently sports media and business.
