Hey folks,
They've gotten the Stars television schedule all set, so here it is. Versus has exclusive rights to some of the games. I don't know all the cable system listings for Versus off the top of my head; I can tell you that it's channel 151 on Dish Network (9468 if you have the HD package).
1 Friday, April 25 at San Jose (HP Pavilion) 9:00 pm VERSUS^
2 Sunday, April 27 at San Jose (HP Pavilion) 8:00 pm My 27
3 Tuesday, April 29 at Dallas (American Airlines Center) 6:30 pm My 27-HD
4 Wednesday, April 30 at Dallas (American Airlines Center) 8:00 pm FSN-HD
5* Friday, May 2 at San Jose (HP Pavilion) 9:00 pm VERSUS^
6* Sunday, May 4 at Dallas (American Airlines Center) 8:00 pm FSN-HD
7* Tuesday, May 6 at San Jose (HP Pavilion) 9:00 pm TBD
* - if necessary ^ - exclusive nationally & in DFW


Am I reading this right? Will games 1 and 5 ONLY be viewable on Versus in the metroplex?
So if you don't shell out the extra bucks to upgrade your cable/satellite package you're out of luck?
Tell me the NHL didn't do this to us again.

Unfortunately John that's the way I understand the situation. I'm in the same boat. If you don't have Versus in your package, it's radio time for games 1 and 5. I'm afraid as the playoffs go deeper there will be more and more games only on Versus.

I saw your post, Dwain, and you're right. From the way I understand it, the second round is the final round for local TV. From the conference finals on, I'm pretty certain it's all national, with Versus and NBC.
