Everybody needs a contingency plan, right? And Versus has one in place for this evening, with the Stars-Sharks game being the second half of a double-header with the Pittsburgh-NY Rangers contest.
(This is all from Versus, by the way). If the Penguins game goes longer than it ought to (i.e., past the 9 p.m. start time for the Stars game), cable viewers in the Dallas market will get the Stars game from the start. For those satellite folks in the Dallas area, the game will be shown in its entirety on an auxiliary channel: For DirecTV, it's Channel 659. For Dish, it's channel 453.
Now that all this has been planned, the Penguins will win 4-0.
Thank goodness - I was so worried about it, really. I would have been forced to stab faces if they kept airing the Pens game when the Stars were playing.
