Rogers made it official Monday with word that Ron MacLean will host Hockey Night in Canada alongside veteran sports reporter David Amber. MacLean will host Game 1 on Saturday nights with Amber hosting Game 2. MacLean will continue to play straight man to Don Cherry in the first intermission of Game 1, an act they have shared for decades. Following his hosting duties on Saturday nights, MacLean will head out to 24 communities across the country to continue his Rogers Hometown Hockey on Sundays throughout the season. George Stroumboulopoulos will depart the company to explore new creative opportunities.
