    Default NHL Center Ice Package: Do you get to watch all the games?

    I see there is Calgary vs Edmonton on sportsnet but those are normally blacked out in my area but its not on the NHL center ice channels (telus). I thought I would get to see all the games?


    i look at the guide for tomorrow and i see tonnes of games. lol i wanted to watch mcdavid tonight

    Watch McDavid on Sportsnet ... it's the second game of the double header. At least in Ontario it is but I think tomorrow night is a nationally televised game so you should be safe from it being blacked out

    No, blackouts still happen. Which is dumb, because then I just go to livetv and stream it, so it gains them nothing.

    I believe some teams still own regional rights or something like that and that's where the blackouts come from. I could be wrong but that's why I think there's still blackouts on the CentreIce package.

    I'd imagine opening night of the season the edm/cal game will be televised nationally somehow ?

    Not Cgy/Edm related but if you're a Leaf fan in BC - you need SHAW, not Telus for Centre ice. Telus blacks out all games broadcast by LeafsTV, SHAW does not. that's 35 games a year. BRUTAL!

    From what I understand as well you don't get any playoff games on Centre Ice either.

    not too long ago they did carry some round 1 matchups that tsn/cbc couldnt fit .

    now that sportsnet has sn1,sn360 and cbc feeds they seem to handle the overflow so none require center ice
