Also they do it so there isn't crossover with the East games.
I see the general reasoning behind this, but every game so far in this series has started on the alternate feed because the other game always runs too long. So for games 5-7 (if required of course), why not change the time to 7 or 7:30 because they show the whole first period on Sportsnet instead of CBC anyway?

8pm games in Vancouver make sense, but there is really no reason for an 8pm start in Calgary when there are more than sufficient ways to show the start of the Calgary game while an Eastern conference team is palying.
