JIP

Phoenix at Detroit, 7pm, Versus

NY Rangers at Washington, 7:30pm, Versus (JIP)

I had no idea what JIP was...but then it hit me...joined in progress.

Already, I was regretting probably not being able to hear Ken and Mick for the game (unless I maybe find a stream online).

Do you think Versus would really cut away from the Wings game to the NYR-WSH game after the first period at around ~7:37 or whatever?

That sounds like something they'd do. <_<

I think you/anybody else that doesn't have local Fox Sports on TV should be fine this game. I can't recall one instance when VS has concluded any first broadcasts early just to join a second game in progress. I remember a late Wings-Ducks playoff game starting late/joining in progress in 2009 on Versus (albiet just about 2 minutes in thankfully right after another game ended).

It's just luck of the draw sometimes with multiple broadcasts early in a postseason, and we got luck of the draw this time around compared to Washington-New York in terms of games broadcasted this early evening.

The JIP for the NYR/WSH game will be *after* the Wings game is completed. They're not going to cut away from the Wings-Yotes 30 minutes in. Essentially, its bonus coverage for the remainder of the NYR/WSH game for those that don't have center ice.

Just one of the many reasons I buy Center Ice every season. :sly:

Fixed it for ya, champ. Not sure if they would do that or not but I was of the understanding that we would have all but Saturday's game on FSD....

Ahh...my bad. It'd be tough to play in two playoff series at the same time.

That's a relief. Thanks.

I wasn't really sure how it worked since I've lived in Michigan my whole life and had FSD. I actually even bought NHL Gamecenter this year, but it's an absolute waste in the playoffs when so many games are blacked out due to being on Versus.

Anyone know if the games will all be on NHL Center Ice? I have had NHL Center Ice for years & the first several rounds have ALWAYS been on there, but looking at the listings for tonight, I am not seeing ANY games on NHL Center Ice! Would really like to watch the Anaheim/Nashville game, but it's nowhere to be found.
