I heard they were considering trading Bernier.
I guess the price will be high.

With Quick coming off back surgery, they may need him this year. Jones ain't gonna cut it.

Maybe at the deadline.

Cool beans. I use to go to a baseball camp in Tacoma. Before I got old and fat. That was a long, long time ago.

NBC pays a poopload of cash for exclusivity. They're not going to give it away, although all the NBC games will be streamed on their site.

Find a way for every fan to have access to see every game on their cable provider. It's 2013, shouldn't be that difficult.

Got that right. They may even be able to get all games in HD one day.

Well Tacoma is OK, but probably the ugliest place in western WA with the pulp mills.

Unless he's traded.

Is Eminger still a NYR?

He has a shot I'd say. (if he even counts as being an ex Flyer).

- Marc D


Yup, Eminger is still with the Rags. I don't think he's going to play unless guys get injured though.

I'm in the same boat. Both NBC feeds are showing the Kings game and the Pens/Flyers isn't being shown on Center Ice. Great start

First row sports it is I guess.

- canadianpenfan


Really? Iwill not be happy if I just ordered CI and they don't show the Flyers game..

Well, the entire US gets to watch the Kings Cup banner raising...which should please Flyers fans to no end.
- Jsaquella


Other than that it is NOT the Flyers, I am not really bothered by it. I'm still a fan of Richards, Carter, Gagne and the rest.

Yea, can't say I would plan a vacation there. My parents just liked having the ability to ship me off somewhere for a week to play a sport i didn't like.

I'm off to put my money where my mouth is, see ya'll soon.

I find it simply adorable that you think that NHL, NHLPA or NBC gives a rat's left nut about the fans.

First week of CI is free. What was the price you paid? I heard it was going to be $60

Center Ice, at least in the US, will not carry any games carried on the national broadcast partner.

I don't think they care about the fans. The last 4 months prove that. It's bad business to exclude people from watching games based on where they live. It's archaic and flat out dumb.

It is, which is why you can pay extra for Game Center Live and get the games.

More money.

However, at least today, all the NBC games will be shown on NBC's website.

Not the same here.. sometimes it'll be on nbc and CI. The big issue I have with it, is that it doesn't show all the Flyers games.. last year there were 2 or 3 times that the Flyers game was completely ommitted.. had to watch on line.

It is a pain, but it boils down to money. That's the bottom line.
