That is by design - Vancouver/Seattle flights are too short to make it practical and you also have to deal with border inspections.

No catching the Cascades train?
And I guess the league never went through with their draft plans to rejig the divs and the number of games played against each team. Might they come back to that in 12 months' time?
I think they want to be on a normal clock again and then address it.
Not sure an Amtrak charter works in the NW only because of equipment issues. In the Northeast, it is easy to find available equipment.

Looks like an early Christmas present on the 8th then a long weekend starting Feb 24th in Seattle followed by a Saturday night in San Jose!

That’s the second week of the season, Fenway. ESPN went with Tampa/Pitt and TNT went with Wash/NY Rangers. Both networks didn’t want Boston for their season opening games.[TBODY] [/TBODY]

Lack of star power? Maybe. Maybe not.
But…
There are teams that draw because of one player, ie: Washington - Ovechkin; Pittsburgh - Crosby; Edmonton - McDavid. But when the Bruins come to town, people go to see the TEAM. And I’m CERTAIN that the Bruins are one of the most popular teams and one of the biggest draws on both sides of the border. I have no scientific data to back this up except anecdotal evidence, but I’d say that the Bruins are probably the third most popular team in the NHL behind Toronto and Montreal in terms of size of fan base.

@NextBigThing ESPN wanted the Bruins to be the opponent for Tampa Bay raising the banner and the Bruins objected. The Bruins now start the season on October 16th.
BUT ( and the list is not final ) ESPN+ has grabbed 2 Montreal/Boston games as exclusive and TNT has grabbed one leaving NESN with only one.
I'm dreading the night when people realize the Bruins are only available on a pay-to-view outlet.
Nice to see the Bruins standing up for themselves. Someone else can be Tampa Bay’s sacrificial lamb.
With the possible exception of my cable/internet provider, I am hard-pressed to think of ANY business in any industry that takes its paying customers more for granted and holds them more in contempt than the NHL does it’s fans.

Thanks for the reply, Fenway. Where’d you find that ESPN+ list of games? Mr. Edwards won’t be happy he only gets to call 1 Habs game.
Edwards is going to lose it. If you stand in Boston Common and listen carefully, you'll be able to hear his howls of protest all the way from his house in the woods of New Hampshire.
He's expressed his disdain for the ability of ESPN to effectively cover hockey in the past. Doubt that opinion's changed much. Things like this won't help it!

highly recommend taking the Clipper between Van Island and Seattle. hop on a short 90 minute ferry from Van to the Island, jump on the clipper

Jack lives in Connecticut
Sorry, I stand corrected! Jack sometimes posts videos of bears in the trees around his house, and that makes me think more of NH, or Vermont or Maine for that matter. But of course there's lots of rural CT too, I'm just less familiar with it.
