Well, that was a scary couple of hours.

On Thursday morning, the retired NHLer-turned beloved broadcaster was named as part of the Los Angeles Kings’ broadcast team for the 2025-26 NHL season, leading to many Canucks fans wondering if Ferraro had moved on from his duties with Sportsnet on Canucks regional broadcasts.

Ferraro didn’t take long to quiet the noise, confirming he’d be back calling Canucks games this season in a post on X.

Ferraro has a notoriously busy schedule. On top of working a handful of Canucks broadcasts, he’s also a mainstay on ESPN’s National NHL broadcasts. In fact, Ferraro called two games on the NHL’s opening night last season, needing to travel from Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle to Salt Lake City to call the inaugural game of the Utah Hockey Club later in the evening.

“I’m going to have a car waiting in the loading dock and as soon as the horn goes, I’ll scurry my way to the car,” Ferraro told The Athletic last year. “That car will take me to a plane somewhere and we’ll fly to Salt Lake City. Then there’ll be a car to take me to the rink. So they better not have overtime in Seattle.”

Ferraro was born in Trail, B.C., and grew up watching the Canucks. He’s lived in Vancouver for years and is married to Canucks assistant general manager Cammi Granato. After a successful playing career, Ferraro took the jump into broadcasting once his playing days were done, and it quickly became clear he was going to be great at that. After serving as TSN’s lead colour commentary voice for 14 years, Ferraro joined John Shorthouse and Dan Murphy on Canucks broadcasts beginning in 2023-24 following the departure of longtime colour commentator John Garrett. For the past two seasons, Ferraro has shared those duties with Dave Tomlinson, and it appears that will continue into the 2025-26 season.
