88: Behind the Broadcast: Paul Graham’s Legacy in Hockey TV.

This week on 100% Hockey, recently retired Paul Graham, the former Vice-President and Executive Producer of Live Events at TSN, joins John Shannon and Daren Millard for a rare and insightful conversation reflecting on his legendary career in hockey broadcasting.

Over decades in the industry, Graham produced more than 1,500 major live sporting events—from NHL and CFL games to Grey Cups and IIHF championships—and was instrumental in turning TSN’s World Junior Hockey Championship coverage into an international broadcasting benchmark. His leadership and production innovations transformed how fans watch the game, setting the gold standard for sports coverage in Canada.

With both Daren and John having worked under his guidance, the pair dig deep into stories from behind the camera: the evolution of hockey production, unforgettable interactions with players, and the creative decisions that shaped some of the sport’s most iconic broadcasts. As he officially hangs up his headset, Graham offers a candid, behind-the-scenes look at the craft and dedication that defined his career—and changed the way we experience hockey forever.
