In-Demand is using CBC-HD for NHL Center Ice

Come on Dish!!! If lousy cable can get it, 16 channels reserved on Dish for HD you can get it for NHL CI subscribers too!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dish can't even get NESN and MSG games in HD and these are RSN's they carry...good luck on CBC and TSN games!

As you may have figured out -- Dish isn't exactly on the cutting edge of HD or SD sports programming...

Well Dish has more of the FSN-HD networks yet Directv has NESN and YES but they don't have MSG and FSN-NY HD either. Right now Dish does lead in HD coverage via NHL Center Ice.

Well at least E* carries more than one feed on CI whereas D* only carries one.
And boy are they screaming over on the D* forums.
It was funny on one of the D* forums some one from D* asked this person where he was getting all his info on CI. It looked as though D* never heard of these boards.

I email the NHL and DISH a couple of times a week about carrying HNIC in HD. Imagine . . . Don Cherry in all his HD gloriousness ;-)

good keep e-mailing them, as much as Tim Robbins does in Shawshank Redemption. Not the NHL of course.

I'd keep emailing the NHL as well. You'd be suprised what can happen. I'm not saying they'll get involved, but I had an issue with Center Ice in the past regarding OTA games being blacked out and after numerous emails and letters, they finally contacted me and got the issue resolved. Initially they claimed it was DISH's responsibility, but eventually they came around and worked with DISH to fix the problem. So . . . keep up those emails!
