This thread will list the national TV playoff crews for 1979. The Canadian crews will be listed by series and the American crews will only be listed game by game as so few were televised.
Heaps of praise to jtgrace1 and djob for their help.

In the first-round Philadelphia-Vancouver series, Bob Cole called games 1 & 3 in Philly and Jim Robson called game 2 in Vancouver. I thought Dornhoefer was also the colour-man for both games in Philly, but Meeker may have done Game 1.
Jim Robson's contract with the Canucks required him to call all road games (so they didn't have to fly somebody else out to the other city, I guess) . . . therefore, he would broadcast Canucks home playoff games on CBC and road games on Vancouver radio.
This went up to 1985, when he left CBC. In 1982, he went all the way to the finals this way. He called all Vancouver home games on CBC, while road games were done by Dave Hodge (round 1), Don Wittman (rounds 2 and 3), and Bob Cole (Finals).
