Authentic Teuvo Teravainen Jersey , South Korea (AP) AJ Mleczko understands there is not a lot of women’s hockey on television outside the Olympics.Mleczko
took home Olympic gold with the U.S. in 1998 and silver in 2002. She took on a
broadcaster’s role for the 2006 Games. And now she will make the transition to
men’s hockey at the NHL level for at least one day when she does color analysis
on NBC’s national broadcast March 6 when the Detroit Red Wings visit the Boston
Bruins.The 42-year-old Mleczko follows the footsteps of former U.S. national
teammate and Hockey Hall of Famer Cammi Granato, who did rinkside reporting for
NBC in 2006-07 and Cassie Campbell-Pascall, who works NHL games for Sportsnet in
Canada and was the first woman to do color commentary on ”Hockey Night In
Canada.””
