"we cant show the us-canada hockey game because we want to give the average viewer a taste of all sports.....diehard hockey fans will find the game and it's on msnbc"

how did they find the time to show that entire game????

I dont even get MSNBC.

If the US wins then it will be all of NBC's coverage for the late night.

sounds great...probably the #1 or #2 hockey game they could have in these olympics....it's on a weekend, it's in primetime on the east coast and 4:45 pst.....yet it's on msnbc????

great fucking decision making at nbc.

You know it's a fucking joke because NBC broadcasts hockey games on the weekend, but this important olympic game that many people would love to watch is put on the sister channel :rolleyes:

In Canada you can watch EVERY event live on 8 different channels......in USA...you get shit on tape delay.

NBC coverage is horrific:mad:

i know the us plays at noon pst but i see ZERO coverage on any channel at noon tomorrow (no nbc, cnbc, msnbc)

what am i missing?

is it 1980, should i have to wait 9 hours to see it on tape delay???

the reason hockey is not on prime time is bc of ratings
the ice dancing and figure skating does better. Sucks but its the truth, medals rounds are on NBC and so is Russia Canada tomorrow which could be one of the best games ever if you ask me.

great answer....too bad the US game tomorrow is NOT in prime time, so what's their excuse now.

its on nbc at 3pm est.....which means i get to watch rachel ray at noon, judge wapner at 1, days of our lives at 2 and then the us game at 3.....at which point i'll know who won.

the other day their bs answer for us-canada was that all the games are shown live on one of our channels (msnbc that day, nothing tomorrow) and we only show snippets of games during primetime.

great news....i get to watch the us play at 3pm pst on a 3 hour tape delay while canada-russia is actually shown live 1 hour later on msnbc.

can somebody shoot the execs at nbc......how in this day-age can they be showing things on tape delay and why dont they have a channel dedicated to live coverage, esp since, you know, the olympics are actually in our time zones this go-around.

I like Ellen :shrug:


Game was awsome by the way.

had to watch it on the internet via canadian broadcast.....hard to see the puck...was a good game.

i think it's on right now on nbc......i bet there are millions glued to their tv's in the west coast watching a 3 hour tape delayed game at 3:30 in the afternoon.
