NHL about to reach Canadian broadcasting deal, only TWO broadcasters


Recommended Posts

Not sure why people are pooping their pampers over this.

1. I can finally watch Canucks games on Sportsnet in Manitoba, without having to buy Center Ice.

2. For those saying "DERP SN!@! TSN iz Wayz bettrsz!" I assume Rogers will pillage all of TSN's talent and bring them over to improve the quality of their programming. That's TV Broadcasting 101.

I think this is going to kill TSN , I dont think they will be able to recover losing on what is far and away there bread and butter

Certainly not going to help them but I doubt it will kill them. They likely will retain all the World Jr. rights etc too and there are other sports...

Sportsnet sure weren't dicking around though...

Hopefully we get the best of both worlds here with them pillaging talent from TSN, national coverage, no more blackouts etc...

Does this deal cover all NHL games or just the Canadian broadcasting rights? If it was only Canadian, TSN could still simulcast American games that are on NBC/Versus.

Edit: Nevermind, reread the report and it says all NHL games...
