But he's very fast - at least he better be.

Glad he's getting another shot especially after the bad break (literally) that he had last year.

I think it's a good thing to award guys in Abbotsfords that are playing well time with the big club. Keeps everyone incentivized.

Perfect example of the new Rogers deal. Mclean just said on CBC that southern Alberta viewers won't miss the Flames faceoff. Under the new deal, the game would simply start on a new channel. Instead of the start being delayed on CBC or CBC splitting the feed to show the Flames in southern Alberta while the Leafs/Habs finish up for the rest of the country.

We also caught a glimpse of the negative aspects, Kypreos JOINING Healy and Stock on Hockey Night in Canada.

It wouldn't SIMPLY start on another channel. It would start on a channel that people have to pay $50.00 a month for! (Actually, I'm not sure how much it costs..but I know that its more expensive than over the air television).

No. It would be on another national channel like SN1 or City or Omni.

The CBC is free over the air television..meaning I don't pay for it. SN1 is not free.

After everything I said this week regarding this..you still don't get it!

haha!

How does this happen every game? We've had gamethreads once the game starts for the entire history of Calgarypuck.

According to CRTC, OTA is also only utilized by less than 5% of our ghetto population.

Even the CRTC said during the switch from analogue to digital that people with OTA "should consider receiving their television from cable or satellite".

OTA is about as relevant as people who say "Well, I'm a bit upset that they aren't releasing that movie on VHS!"
