Now Playing: Rangers-Devils… Everywhere

Being in NY I have the Rangers-Devils game on the MSG Network and on OLN.  As the Philly-Buffalo game is currently 6-1 in favor of Buffalo, TSN (which I get on Center Ice) decided to turn to the Rangers-Devils game.  Oh, thank you.  I know a blowout game isn’t always fun to watch - but sometimes it is.  Glad I don’t have to make the decision on whether or not to keep watching.  Thankfully, I am now force-fed NYR-NJD on three stations.

I wonder if we’ll all still miss the beginning of the Avalanche-Stars game, with the exception being those in local Col-Dal markets.

Technology really needs to step up so we can simply get what we want on demand.

Update: TSN flipped back to the Flyers-Sabres game for the end of the second period.  Will we see the third?

Update 905pm: Rangers-Devils has been on, almost 5 minutes into the third.  The Flyers-Sabres third period is just starting and the Avalanche-Stars game should be just about ready to start.

Update 920pm: After the Devils go ahead by 3, thanks to a hat trick by John Madden, TSN switches over to Col-Dal, a little more than five minutes in.  Then the Center Ice feed switches to the Sabres’ MSG feed just in time to see the Sabres score again (now it’s 7-2 Sabres).  OLN is still showing the Rangers-Devils, so the Avs-Stars coverage was merely a tease.

  1. I went through the same thing last night—even though the game was a blowout, I was actually enjoying the Flyers-Sabres and then bamm…it was gone.
