So what if TSN isn't the only go to? Here's an off the wall thought - what if Shaw picks up regional broadcast rights for the Flames?

- Shaw's western canadian cable operations largely cover Flames territory
- Shaw / Corus is big on owning content to drive subscribers - and sports content is the most desirable of them all
- Could be an arrangement like CBC where SN continues to produce the show (for a fee) and Shaw distributes exclusively (sorry Telus customers)
- Shaw's base of operations is Calgary
- The Shaw's can be nutty enough to do something like this
- The existing public access community broadcaster vibe, budget and look of SN will fit right in with.....Shaw's own Ch. 10 community broadcaster vibe, budget and look..
