sullim4 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 That is interesting and not how things worked during last year's post-season nor this year's regular season. Games 1 & 4 of the Otter series were on OLN and not shown on MSG. Assuming Pergament is correct, I wonder if the RJ and JL broadcast will only be available in WNY. It doesn't make any sense for Versus to show 5 Sabres games if they know the bulk of their audience will be watching the games on another network. The way the NHL does TV during the first two rounds is similar to what MLB does with Wednesday night baseball. If you're in the local market, you have to view the game on your RSN (except NBC games). Otherwise, you get the national broadcast on Versus. As an example, do a search for the Campbell hit during the Philly series on YouTube and you'll find a couple that use the MSG feed, and most use the Versus feed.

TheMadCap Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Right, but I am concerned about game 1. I think the Sabs come out smoking! Can't miss it. Maybe I will see if any other Richmond area types want to go see it at the bar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Looks like you'll get most of round 1 on Versus on DirecTV. It may even be in HD (on channel 95) if we're lucky. CW Should be HD. I'm guessing TSN will be doing HD for the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Yes, actually that's where my friend are who refer to them as the "Bres". Buffalo and WNY. If your friends don't, maybe you should get that ball rolling... Oh snap. Beerball will drown when he see's this. First "Presser" Then some type of txt messg And now "Bres" What the hell is the world coming to? Out of those three sayings, I vote Bres be immediatedly removed from our vocabulary. At least on the east coast. West coast, whatever bhra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double the penalty if you actually attempt to say "'Bres" out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Seconded. Double the penalty if you actually attempt to say "'Bres" out loud. I just said it TWICE. Sounded good, too. Also said "Swords" and "Foils". Please let me know my penance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your penance: You have to watch two and three line passes resulting in goals. Like I saw on Sunday. You have to watch a high stick that poked nobody result in a penalty. You have to watch folks milling about the crease with nary a goalie stick whack, or a heavens-to-betsy shove by a defender clearing out an opposing player. Forecheck, backcheck...what's that? Politically correct hockey, cash register hockey...the Jim Schoenfelds, the Gordie Howes, the Gump Worselys, must be embarrassed.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
