If you have Bell Satellite, you should be able to get CHEX. I have Shaw Cable, so I'm outta luck.

It says CHEX is on Bell Express vu on channel 217 and on StarChoice. Not looking like it is available on Bell Aliant fibreOp. Darn...

This should be interesting how it all works out, I have centerice, tan, sent, all of which costs me a gaggle of cash and I may not be able to watch the game in a reasonable format? (CBC.ca is pretty fuzzy most times). Could make renewal and cable subscription decision go another way!

I'm thinking they would have to be stupid not to slot the Bruins/Caps games 1 and 3 onto an HD center ice channel.

Or say to TSN, we screwed up and you have room on your schedule (with TSN and TSN2), so to avoid a ton of pissed off Canadian Bruins fans, can you air games 1 and 3 for us.... One can hope... lol.

Yea, and I'm sure there are a lot of Canadian Ovi/Caps fans that are upset about this as well. Should work out in our favour.

Is this really happening though...The defending Stanley Cup Champions and probably the number one American team in Popularity in Canada after the Canadian Teams and they are not going to be on TV? come on...Some one messed up hard here. Against the former poster boy Ovechkin.....this is so lame. I hope someone on here will broadcast an HD stream of NESN. If so, please PM me with a link on game day. I will keep it private.

I sent them one on Monday ( no response yet ) and I told them that while I know that it's important for the CBC to showcase Canadian teams it's also important to note that there are a lot more Bruin fans west of Ontario then there are Senators fans. I was hoping TSN2 might pick up the games but they've got curling scheduled instead.

I also e-mailed Rogers ( cable provider ) & asked if they would broadcast the game on Center Ice.....no reply for me from CBC or Rogers....

CBC are morons we all know that, I am hoping I can at least watch it on RDS, I can handle a little French, but not more than oen series.

Does Telus TV have it on, as I was thinking about switching from Shaw?

All are welcome to come over to watch all the games, I'm afraid that game 1 won't be in HD though

Chex, 217, Calgary - Says "Nhl teams to be announced.."

Fingers crossed.

Mind you, it might make my house cleaner and my heart will probably cope better.

Thanks for the email link to CBC.
I just sent an email to them asking why they picked up the Bruins series if they only intend to show the Ottawa series on most CBC channels.
I'm lucky enough to have Cable and BEV, so I have a good chance of seeing the Bruins/Caps games, but CBC makes me very upset what they are doing with this series......they should have let some other network pick up this series, instead of kidnapping it, just to tick off Bruins fans.

RDS is carrying the Sens game. RDS2 (I didn't even know that existed...Shaw doesn't have it) is carrying the Bruins game.

I don't know about Telus.
