Here's the contact info for CBC / HNIC (TV)

http://www.cbc.ca/sports/contact/

Does anyone want to draft an official complaint on our behalf? I'm thinking that all they have to do is check the ratings for the HNIC broadcasts when the Bruins play. I'm sure the ratings are decent.

I already called Bell cause i have been with them since day one and i have had the hockey package since it came out.I told them to cancel my dish if this series isn't on the hockey package in HD,false advertising if they don't.

Seriously. CBC is full of hateful anti Bruin cockroaches. To not air the defending champs is a disgrace

The ONLY good thing about CBC is Don Cherry, Besides that their network and coverage stinks. You have my vote. here

What they should have done is let TSN pick it up and taken a different series. Looking at TSN/TSN2's schedule, the only conflict not resolvable would have been Thurs, April 19. And that's considering that there are already 4 series scheduled in. Amazing how TSN/TSN2 could almost cover 5 series entirely...

That being said, didn't CBC and TSN split some of the games from specific series last year to avoid conflicts?

There is 2 french sport channel (RDS and TVAsport) but I can't find what serie(s) they will be broadcasting. Anyone knows? Maybe they will show the bruins missing games.

edit: TVAsport will not broadcast anything
RDS and RDS2 have hockey playoff in their schedule but it does not says wich teams....

So if they don't show a playoff game this would be false advertising IMHO .
NHL Centre Ice will probably show the CBC Broadcast. I've watched Bruins Playoff games on NHL Centre Ice in the past. Usually from the first 2 Rounds.

With all of the stations I get here in Ottawa I just assumed one of them would carry the Bruins/Caps series, if I have to streamline I will be pissed.

I feel bad for others, but getting the games on CHEX in SD is better than not getting them at all.

If you have NHL Centre Ice you should be able to watch the games that aren't on Regular CBC & in HD too.

The Saturday afternoon games will be available on CBC & NBC in Canada so you can choose the broadcast that you prefer.

Check the Interactive Program Guide on your TV and see what the SD NHL Centre Ice Channels show. (The HD Channels don't seem to update until a day or 2 before the actual game)

Worst case scenario I watch online @ www.cbc.ca & HDMI Out from my BlackBerry PlayBook to my HDTV.

However I don't see having to do this as I've always been able to watch all Bruins Playoff games in HD in the past. Either on TSN TSN2 CBC NBC or the NHL Centre Ice Package.

I agree, hopefully CHEX is carrying games 1 and 3.

Apparently NBC will be broadcasting all playoff games this year (regional broadcasts rounds 1-2) and they will be using CNBC. Pretty cool time to be a hockey fan.

Definitely cool, but my productivity will take a nosedive. The first round is going to be like March Madness on steroids.
