Christine Simpson, a longtime hockey reporter for Sportsnet, has announced her departure from the network, marking another major exit after Jeff Marek was let go earlier this summer.
Simpson, who began her broadcasting career in 1998, was a fan favourite on Hockey Night in Canada and well-known for her memorable interviews with some of the NHL's biggest stars.
Her departure has sparked speculation about whether she left for a new opportunity or was let go. This news follows Marek's removal, reportedly linked to leaked information about the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.
Simpson's exit is just one of several high-profile departures at Sportsnet, leading some to wonder if Ron MacLean might be next. As fans and colleagues wished Simpson well on social media, her next move remains uncertain, but her contributions to hockey media will certainly be missed.
