Krystal 41 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 Sounds like they're trying to get us accustomed to playing late early this year Seriously though, I have no idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 This is bogus because the game starts at 9:00 pm, but the VS coverage doesn't start until 9:30... so pretty much instead of covering the game at a time that doesn't mean overlap, or not covering it on VS at all so its not blacked out on my CI Online would have been nice, since now I cannot watch the 1st period. This is just poor scheduling by the NHL and by Versus and another example of why they suck. The Wild/Avs play tonight and tomorrow night, so on Tuesday there are 2 late games...on Wed everything is an east coast game so they pushed the wings/preds to a 9 o'clock start so that they could still cover 2 games that night. Granted Nashville is Central Time so that is an 8 o'clock start in Nashville (Not absurd) but they couldnt make it a 10 o clock game because that is a 9 start in local nashville time which is to late. I just think that the NHL and Versus should have put one late game tomorrow and one on wednesday, then the wings game would have started at 7:30 or 8:00 eastern time on wednesday, Versus wouldn't cover it and i could watch it on center ice online... There is my I have to miss the 1st period rant.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jpfalcon09 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 Center Ice will have the game via Sports South, the Nashville feed. Any of you who have CI and live outside of the Detroit area can catch the full game on there and of course switch over to Versus once they pick up coverage.

McCartyFanForLife 17 Report post Posted April 14, 2008 Sounds like it was pushed back for TV scheduling. yes, the 2 eastern conference games that night both start at 7P Eastern Time. Since the NHL would like to keep viewers for more than a couple hours, they had to start the Wings game later. Because Nashville is in the Central time zone, it made it easier. So they pushed the start to 9P Eastern time (since 10P would be too late). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I'll be watching it on Center Ice until Versus gets the feed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
