Al Trautwig's contract not renewed by MSG Network
Al Trautwig, one of MSG’s most prominent on-air figures for three decades, no longer works for the network after not having his contract renewed last year.
"I have over 30 years of wonderful memories at MSG," he said on Monday via email. "Unfortunately, the non-renewal of my contract after 30 years with no real explanation is not one of them."
MSG said in a statement, "Al will always be one of the great broadcasters in sports television and we wish him all the best."
Trautwig, 65, took a leave of absence in September 2019 for what was described as personal reasons after he appeared unwell to many viewers during coverage of a Rangers' preseason game.
