Good job!!!!!!!!!

We need to get the message out there.

CBC is undecided at this time on broadcast, but hearing that many angry fans across the country sending in their views.

Keep on sending in the emails and calls.

What I have heard is that there are a lot of complaints and if they continue to hear the voices of Hockey fans, they will air this game.

I called Rogers today, and they basically told me I would need to order an additional package to get CHEX.
NHL Centre Ice has shown Playoff Games from the first 2 Rounds numerous times in the past.

This is really lame... I know I am going to have to this series on some crappy stream.

What I really hate is that I pay a yearly subscription to NHL Gamecenter Live and when those CBC retards pick up the series it will be blacked out on Gamecenter.

I hope Gamecenter realizes that that this series will not be broad casted nationally and remove the blackout.

Mind you 9 times out of 10 Bruins games are not blacked out making Gamecenter a good alternative to someone who does not want to pay for cable or satellite TV.

I sent a complaint through the cbc.ca webform a few days ago. Hopefully we can get it sorted cause it is truly absolutely ridiculous.

Rogers just replied to me & basically said that they can't confirm the games to be broadcast on Center Ice unless CBC gives them permission.


Here in NL, at times we don't give a crap about Canada....this mess ain't helping anything today.....Bruins are 3rd in popularity here behind Montreal & Toronto....

CBC would be ass retarded not to release this.

Hopefully they come to their senses soon. I just sent another complaint and will continue to until something happens.

Funny thing, CNBC is in more homes in the US than NBCSN, but it's being used as the "overflow" channel.

I don't know if this means anything ( or if it's just wishful thinking on my part ) but my TV listings have now changed. I'm with SHAW and yesterday my on screen listings had Ottawa vs New York airing on the local CBC station Thursday afternoon but now they just show Stanley Cup Playoffs/TBA. Of course this could be just CBC's way to lessen the complaints coming in but knowing full well that they will still be showing the Ottawa vs New York game.

CHEX is standard def only. That to me is like an extra slap in the face.

I'm sure by Shaw 348, they mean Shaw Direct.

And some googling... http://www.facebook.com/CHEXTV?sk=info Yup. Shaw Direct. Not Shaw cable.

I am at work, but called home to ask the girlfriend to turn on channel 129. It brought her to CHCH in Hamilton...I thought that was odd.

just scrolled through the Rogers guide for tomorrow (Ontario East). Didn't see the Bruins/Caps on any channel. Sens/Rangers is all over CBC. Absolute baffoonery. If this isn't fixed...LOL I don't know what I'm going to do, but whatever it ends up being, I hope it has a long-lasting severe impact on CBC.

Caps fan here.

Tried to stream the Wings game just to test it out for tomorrow. It failed miserably. Can't go 2 minutes without crashing. How does CBC think this is even remotely acceptable?
