Cast your vote here, http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?page=icepicks and let us out of towners get to watch a Sabres game this year (hopefully better than the Detroit game)...

also, I think of you then go directly to the ESPN NHL section, you can vote again...I think it works... http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/index


Please help out the out of town fans....it would be great to see such an intense game on TV


**they say something about the blackout...only applies if Empire isn't carrying the game...you'll all still get to watch it

No thanks I'll watch on Empire with Rick Jeanerette and Jim Lorentz! I hate ESPN with Gary Thorne in my butt and Bill Clement hands of cement ESPN doesn't have any good announcers.

Thank God that NHL Centre Ice picks up the local (i.e. empire) feed as opposed to having to listen to the awful ESPN play-by-play/colour guys.

I agree with you....and you can still watch on Empire...

---but for the sake of us not in the Buffalo area...please vote...

I'll be watching ESPN (as long as people vote)...and running the sound from my computer broadcasting Jeanerette and Lorentz from Empire on the internet...

throne is good i like jeanerette and lorentz alot more but anytime a game is on tv its worth it

yeah...Thorne and Clement are much better than the guys here for the Sharks...ridiculously boring...

it does suck too because the Sharks have been on ESPN a lot lately and I'd prefer to watch the game there....but its blacked out so I have to watch the local channel...

but that was just fine for the Sabres 2-1 win last week - hanign out with Sharks fans in my self-constructed bar with my Sabres flag hanging on the wall

Agreed.

As long as there is no Red Wings game listed on that poll, there is a chance for the Buffalo/Toronto game.

besides It's probably going to be blacked out in Buffalo anyways.

Good news for Comcast subscribers in Baltimore... I guess just me! They claim they'll have the NHL package by next season so I won't have to deal with trudging to ESPN Zone to watch games. at least I found a boy here to watch hockey with! But he makes me watch too many Flyers games :(
I'm going on ESPN right now to vote for the game. Then I'll vote from lots of diff't computers at school tomorrow.

Nope, I declare conflict of interest, since I get all the Leafs games (and Sabres, Blue Jackets, Broons, Habs....)
