How
do you choose your broadcast schedule each year?
Each year we work with the NHL to do our best to ensure that
viewers are able to see the games they want to see on Saturday
nights. Providing coverage of the NHL’s Canadian teams
is paramount for us, and we take this process very seriously.
Over the past few years, we have increased coverage of Canadian
teams, particularly in the west, with the second game of our
weekly doubleheader.
How
do you decide to distribute the games?
On nights when we have a regional game in addition to our
traditional doubleheader, our goal is to make sure that the
majority of Canadians get to see the game they want. We know
we can’t please everyone, but we do our best.
How
can I purchase a copy of a specific game?
