Yes it is possible - Rogers has an agreement with CBC to allow them to have HNIC and the playoffs

However it is highly unlikely that they would give games to TSN - its a reason they paid 5.2 billion - so they could have EXCLUSIVE rights

They view TSN as a competitor unlike CBC which they consider to be useful but not really a competitor
