In the last years I only watched it for the second day of the draft. I noticed a couple of months ago that it was no longer on my Bell sports package but like I said I won't miss it.

Actually watching SD on a normal SD tv is not bad. I have a small 14" tv I keep near my desktop computer and it's still pretty clear.

But watching SD on an HDTV is impossible.

yeah, SD was established for 17" TVs. Anything above that is a mess.

Speaking of 14" TVs near your desktop. That's what I started with and gradually moved up to a 40" TV.

That's bad news because it means no more Kathryn Tappen.

I liked the channel and basically every goal was shown on the highlights and Kathryn Tappen. Not having HD in Canada was the main problem. I have seen the channel in HD when I crossed the border into Point Roberts or in Ferndale, Wash. It looked great even though the show was in a dated studio. The closest thing now is TH2N on TSN2. The co-host was sometimes the same on NHL Tonight and TSN2. Dave Reid, Noodles, Craig Button, and others did double duty.
