Mike Milbury was charged with assaulting a 12-year-old boy in early December, but the charges were dropped. With the charges dropped, Milbury will return to his studio analyst role with NBC Sports.
Dec 27, 2011 - The NBC broadcast of the Winter Classic game between the New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers will feature Mike Milbury's return to the studio. Milbury was charged with assault on a 12-year-old at a pee-wee hockey game on December 9, but those charges were dismissed on Decmeber 23 due to a lack of evidence. Unsurprisingly, NBC Sports Group has kept Milbury off their properties, but he will return for the Winter Classic according to a press release.
NBC's coverage of the Winter Classic will be hosted by Costas, a 22-time Emmy Award-winner. He will be joined by NBC Sports Group studio analysts Mike Milbury and Jeremy Roenick for coverage on NBC and post-game coverage on NBC Sports Network. NBC's game coverage will be led by Emmy Award-winner Mike "Doc" Emrick (play-by-play) Eddie Olczyk (analyst), and Pierre McGuire (inside-the-glass reporter).

this is disgraceful. besides the fact that millbury is an awful analyst, he deserves to be fired because even if the charges were dropped he still obviously went over the line and is a disgrace to the NHL
