Notes
- On April 7, 2008, Haynes was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm of his basilar artery. He successfully underwent surgery for the problem two days later,[3][4] but was unable to do the play-by-play for the Colorado Avalanche in the 2008 Stanley Cup playoffs. Former Avalanche and current St. Louis Blues announcer John Kelly filled in during Haynes's absence before Haynes returned next season.[5]
- On June 8, 2009, McNab signed a multi-year deal with Altitude, where he started his 14th season as the color commentator for the Colorado Avalanche at the beginning of the 2009-2010 NHL season.
