total joke
Wed, 04/15/2009 - 09:13 — jrjacks2I hope someone calls them out for this. A lot of the games are on TSN in Canada, I wonder if they managed to set up a HD feed?
Also, we can all thank Time Warner Cable for switching the HD NHL Center Ice Channel to baseball. All year there was a game a night on HD on channel 745 but now that the playoffs are here they switched it to baseball. I love baseball, but I do not need to see the Astros and Giants in HD in April when it could/should be a NHL playoff game.
Pathetic
Wed, 04/15/2009 - 06:12 — JohnG424This is absolutely pathetic that the games aren't in HD. The Hurricanes TV contract is a complete joke, between missing the beginning of the games because of basketball or tennis or whatever and now this lack of HD for the playoffs, I'm really fed up with FSN Carolinas.
Roger, can you help us out with some contact info at FSN where we can send our complaints.
Really, FS Carolinas?

huh!!!
Tue, 04/14/2009 - 13:30 — vdotuwho do we call or contact to complain on the lack of HD? Is any other NHL series on FS not shown in HD?
Should be easy to track down. Only 7 other series to check.
No games in HD?!
Tue, 04/14/2009 - 13:27 — monroemaRoger, were you able to get a sense for why none of the first-round playoff games are going to be televised in HD? Showing the games in HD seems like a great way to get more fans watching the playoffs.
