Vow Renewal For The Bolts & The Bone
• The NHL’s Tampa Bay Lightning and Cox Media Group announced that Hot Talk WHPT (102.5 The Bone)/Tampa Bay will continue as the official flagship station of the Bolts following a multi-year contract extension.
Bolts fans will continue to hear the same great broadcast they have become accustomed to with Dave Mishkin on play-by-play alongside Lightning founder and Hockey Hall of Famer, Phil Esposito serving as color analyst. Greg Linnelli returns as the host for pre-game, intermission, and post-game, along with other talent and personalities.
New this year is a weekly show on 102.5 The Bone featuring Lightning personalities, an expanded Last Call Postgame Show, and daily Lightning updates on all CMG Tampa stations.
The Lightning broadcast has expansive reach, with 102.5 the Bone boasting the strongest signal in the state of Florida, pumping out 100,000 watts to serve Tampa Bay and Sarasota, and extending into Ft. Myers and Lakeland.
