Some of us expats live in the enemy TV markets so it's relevant info... but then again we know to expect the MSG blackout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they did, yeah, but they didn't stop operating. I asked one of the Texas Rangers Bally Sports broadcasters on Twitter (who's usually pretty good about answering questions) about the situation and he didn't answer; maybe it's still unsettled... maybe he isn't even getting paid.

Spoonman Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) 35 minutes ago, Doohickie said: If it's NHLN or TNT or ESPN+ exclusive, that should be in the thread title. But if it's just a normal MSG-B game and no other network, those are on ESPN+. The NHL website denotes them as follows. If it's on one of the "special" networks then that should be in the title (as shown on the NHL website). But if it's just a normal local sports net broadcast, the assumption is it will be on ESPN+. Normal game (on MSG in home market, ESPN+ out of market, unless viewer lives in opponent's local market, then have to watch on enemy's market sports net): TNT Exclusive game (on TNT/Max only, both in home market and out of market): ESPN+ Exclusive game (on ESPN+ only, both in home market and out of market): NHL Network game (on MSG in home market, NHLN out of market): Sure @Doohickie e e logical on SabreSpace. What’s the matter with you?! 😆 —————————- In other news….. PLAYERS TO WATCH TONIGHT Buffalo JJ Peterka is riding a career-best five-game point streak with three goals and three assists in that span. Casey Mittelstadt has recorded at least a point in each of his last four games (2+3). Erik Johnson leads all NHL skaters in shorthanded ice time (50:55) while Jordan Greenway ranks first among forwards in the league (42:05). Carolina Jesperi Kotkaniemi leads the Hurricanes with 12 points (5+7) in 12 games. Sebastian Aho has recorded a point (1+1) in consecutive games and looks to extend his point streak against the Sabres. Goaltender Antti Raanta has posted a 3-1 record after appearing in five games for Carolina. Edited November 7, 2023 by Spoonman 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Also: I generally don't trust the thread starter to get it right; some people just copy-paste a previous title and rework it and occasionally the broadcast info is bad. I try to look at the NHL site and see what it says, understanding that some people are viewing everything from the home market or from overseas or whatever and just don't "get" the Buffalo diaspora experience.

SabresBaltimore Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Personally I like to the list the 2 RSN (when applicable) and otherwise indicate if it's a national broadcast in the US. I don't really know about Canadian broadcasts to include those for the Canadian members. But I always look up every game anyways since I do a Game Day Info post in a slack server I belong to, so it doesn't matter too much to me if only MSG-B is posted here. I only have to worry about Caps games being blacked out here, or when a game is on NHL, TNT. Otherwise I'm using ESPN+ and it doesn't really matter. I'd like to see us get above .500 tonight and carry some momentum into Friday's game, since I'm coming up for that one. I'm really hoping we can start putting together a lot of multi-game win streaks this month to make up for our slow/inconsistent start to the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I just look at the NHL app or website, there's no reason for it to be in the post title. It usually just derails the GDT for 2 pages.

Tonight would be a good start. At least last they've finally been able to gets some points from the Florida teams the past couple years. That was another problem. Maybe in the Playoffs.

Mustache of God Posted November 7, 2023 Report Share Posted November 7, 2023 Based upon how varied the TV access is by region I would almost argue that we should not list broadcast info in the thread title. It's our own responsibility as the viewer to figure out how to watch the games. Thread titles don't need to hold our hands for everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I kind of like to know when it's an "off-nominal" situation so I can jump right to TNT or NHLN or whatever when tuning in the game. Not necessary but convenient (if done right). 9 minutes ago, LETSTUCHINGO said: Can anyone tell me why Biro is on IR? I didn't know he got injured. Because they wanted Savoie in his roster spot but wanted to pay him NHL wage between now and the next Amerks game for being such a good soldier. So banana peels in the weight room it is.
