Because when the strike ended ESPN refused to show more NHL games and you can't interfere with the Prime Time Line-Ups, they're just to good to pass for hockey, yea right, I a tip my hat to versus for showing NHL games.

Because no way would NBC dedicate about 10 hours total of airtime to NHL acitivities that don't even matter in the standings.

The NHL made a deal with VS. The All-Star game is part of the contract, can't blame VS for that.

seem on the final 2 communities this guy had performed for. and you answer me this: are you able to truly shine with crappy communities? it variety of feels that Garon is a large goalie yet is being out-shadowed by using his group not generating. i do have self belief if he exchange into on a collection like Vancouver, Detroit, and so on. then i think of he could shine and be an all-star. i consistently theory he could do solid in Vancouver backing up Luongo, yet they have been given sanford now and that they dont choose him.

because the NHL just wants money over fans.
i mean. they shoulda signed with ESPN. instead of this no-name channel. they dont think. and they wonder why people dont watch them. maybe because their broadcasts are only reaching 1/4 of US residents in the first place. and then 1/8 of them actually watch it.

Versus bought the rights, that's why. It drives me up the wall when Sabres games are on that channel. Be prepared for extremely poor announcing.

The only conclusion I can draw is that Gary Bettman is not very bright.
