Comcast SportsNet next Wednesday will test out a new feature for fans who simply can't get enough of Alex Ovechkin. During the Caps March 12 game against the Calgary Flames, the sports network will focus one of its cameras entirely on the high-scoring left wing, giving fans a dedicated view of Ovechkin throughout the game. The "OvechKam" can be seen as part of a split-screen broadcast on CSN +.
CSN's primary channel will show the traditional game view in high-definition.
It will be interesting to see whether this innovation catches on. But imagine the precedent it could set:
-MannyKam: Chronicling the frequent trips of Nationals manager Manny Acta from the dugout to the pitchers mound and back this season.
-ZornKam: Follow Redskins head coach Jim Zorn as he calls plays, directs practices argues with Dan Snyder and calls his wife to ask why she didn't talk him out of taking this dang job.
-GilKam: We're suprised Gilbert Arenas hasn't already done this. If its successful, it might appear on the Discovery Health channel alongside "Mysery Diagnosis" and "Dr. Oz."
-RonnieKam: The best of Ronnie Belliard's dance moves.
-SmootKam: This one would only be shown late at night on certain pay cable channels.

The Smootkam would be the best one.
