This is a very impressive schedule from NBC and NBCSN. It is amazing to see the increase in western conference team coverage. Overall, NBCSN will be doing 25 out of 26 Wednesday Night Hockey games. The only Wednesday that will not be shown is on Hallowe'en due to the potential game seven of the World Series. That is why there is only one game scheduled on that night, Blackhawks at Canucks. It could still be televised by NBCSN if the World Series is already decided.

There are 17 Wednesday doubleheaders which is more than Sportsnet is doing. They could do four more doubleheaders which mostly involve the Ducks, but, each team is allowed a maximum of eleven games on NBCSN. The remaining four Wednesdays do not have games scheduled in the Mountain and Pacific timezones.

Here is an article that come out today Wednesday night hockey being "must see TV."
