It is happening with two games involving canadian teams being regional. Sportsnet is advertising that Wednesday Night Hockey will show the Predators at Blackhawks game on SN360 and the main Sportsnet channel, but, not the West channel. The Avalanche-Flames game will be regional on Sportsnet West and the Senators-Ducks will also be regional on TSN5.

The blame is all on Sportsnet in this case. Sportsnet could easily have the Flames game on the main channel, the Senators game on SN1 or SN360, and the american game on SN1 or SN360. The exclusivity has been waived by Sportsnet for this Wednesday as they are permitting arch rival TSN to televise the Senators game.
