NHL Centre Ice Package - Star Choice??

[Smitty1]

Hi Guys

 

I am hoping someone can answer this question regarding the NHL centre ice package.

 

I am a Leaf fan living in Ottawa - so I ordered this package last night - I am wondering about tonight's game in Ottawa - will it be shown on centre ice or will there be a black out here?

 

I don't have sportsnet - which I believe it is shown on - anyone know if this will be shown or will I be listening the old fashion way on the radio?

 

Thanks

i don't have the package so i'm not positive but, it is my understanding they don't have the rights to broadcast any games that are broadcast on other stations, cbc tsn sportsnet.... i' think you'll be listening to the radio, or hit the sports bar

I have Starchoice and I get Sportsnet and TSN alternates. I often get games on them, but there are occasional blackouts too. Look at the numbers just above 400

Hey Smitty,

 

I am also a Leaf fan living in the Nation's Capital.

 

Due to the lack of televised "blue and white" games in this area, each year I order the Centre Ice package, although my cable provider is Rogers.

 

Now, I do have Sportsnet, so watching the game tonight on that channel shouldn't be a problem. However, I would imagine it would also be on Centre Ice, as it is my understanding that all games are shown.

 

For instance - I watched the last game again Washington on Centre Ice, even though it was only originally broadcast on Leafs TV...

 

I believe you should get every Leaf game....

 

Go Leafs Go,

 

Justin

so smitty1, curious if you got to see the game, i checked out the bell site and it said those with the centre ice package for bell would have to tune in to sportsnet to watch the game, was star choice better?
