Brad May Joins CBC for AHL Broadcasts

From the network’s website:

First, the one-time Toronto Maple Leafs and Vancouver Canucks left-winger will get his feet wet with CBC Sports’ 10-game slate of AHL contests in the 2010-11 season, starting Oct. 17 when the Toronto Marlies host the Binghamton Senators at 1 p.m. ET.

May certainly isn’t entering his new job cold, having gained broadcast experience with cable sports network TSN, the NHL Network and Sportsnet.

The 2007 Stanley Cup champion also spent years picking the brains of numerous media types, and this summer, watched a variety of sports and games to learn his new craft.

“I never really thought it would be that difficult,” said May, who still owns a house in Scottsdale, Ariz., from his days playing for the Phoenix Coyotes from 2000 to 2003. “I want to be good at it, so I want to do the work and preparation.
