The only opportunity I have to watch the Penguins is Versus (which I have through Verizon FiOS), CBC (I don't like in Canada), RDS (French-Canadien? I don't have it), or FoxSports Pittsburgh (I'm a little too far to run a cable). WTF happened between ESPN and the NHL?
ESPN used to televise tons of hockey during the playoffs. I know that changed a few years back. Was it over ratings or simply money? What will they broadcast instead? Lumberjack contests, Rome's show, lame basketball, April meaningless baseball, ...
At least I get a few on Versus which is better than nothing. Internet radio and highlights on the Pen's website will have to tide me over I guess. And I'll be forced to watch the Bruins.

“tim,
Aren't you in the same boat? Let's say the Sen's coach wasn't a pussy by saying the Pens threw the last game of their season... wouldn't you want to watch those games (unless you are in Canada that is)?” -

“check the NHL network (if you get it). They have an in-depth highlight show and sometimes pick up whole games, or do "Live look ins"”

“Redden got his ass kicked tonight.
Whitney must have landed 11 straight shots to the head without an answer AFTER the sweater was pulled over his head.
Ouch.”
