NBC's Olczyk Pulls Double Duty With Pegasus, NHL All-Star Game

NBC's Eddie Olczyk is set for an unusual broadcasting double-duty on Saturday, as the NHL All-Star Game and the Pegasus World Cup fall on the same day. On Saturday during the Pegasus broadcast (4:30-6:00pm ET on NBC) Olczyk will join via remote from San Jose, where he will call the NHL All-Star Game in primetime on Saturday (8:00pm on NBC). Friday during the NHL All-Star Skills Competition (9:00pm on NBCSN), Olczyk will offer his insight on the races, and may provide some early horse betting tips. A noted horse racing handicapper, Olczyk has predicted the Kentucky Derby trifecta -- the horses that win, place and show -- two times in the last four years.
