I have to think Versus will carry some of those 7:30 games. Considering I will be in Hilton Head next week I sure hope Versus carries a few of them so I can watch them.

NHL Networks showed the schedule this morning and said VS will have games 1, 3,4,5, and game 6 will be on NBC.

Games 2 and 7 are the only ones they are not scheduled to pick up.

If there's a ****ing game 7 between Buffalo and Philly and it's not on national TV, the NHL should be ashamed of themselves.

[OpIv37]

DAMMIT

According to this, the only game VS is scheduled to pick up is game 3:

We just got boned by the NHL's hard-on for Crosby

NBC has game 6 if necessary.

Hopefully it won't go into OT and be followed the a horse race pre-show.

Bruins-Habs have 4 games on versus...I am sure games 5-7 are subject to change based on if series are completed. I guess I will miss games 2, 4 and 5. What the he'll was I thinking of going on vacation with my family during the NHL playoffs

The first game is going to be joined in progress, that is ****.

[OpIv37]

JIP? **** that. "You get to see the last 5 minutes assuming the Pittsburgh game doesn't go into OT." What horse ****.

[SabreEleven]

Wait, how is the first game JIP when there is no games that start earlier than that except for 7pm starts. Is there bull riding on that is going to make us miss the first couple hours of the game?

that's exactly what I'm saying. We'll see our game after the game that starts at 7 ends, which means we will only see the last 20-30 minutes.

I'll be routing the BSN feed to my TV through the HDMI out on the computer. The picture's not perfect but it'll work.

It's amazing how one can get what one wants for free with some technical knowledge and a little bit of moral flexibility.
