Jets I am pretty confident were under Molson, they had a number of games on HNIC, and were also on local hockey game telecasts that were sponsored by Molson. You're right its the Nords that barely got games on CBC, and yes it was because of the beer wars. No home games were televised on HNIC, and some home games were blackout during the playoffs cause of this issue.
