Dish Network Center Ice question

[LazRNN]

Does anyone know if Dish Network Center Ice subscribers get all the Stanley Cup playoff games? Particularly the conference finals and first two games of the Stanley Cup Finals, which I believe is exclusive to OLN in the US. Will Center Ice pick up the Canadian broadcasts?

Center ice for dishnet will not be able to pick up the canadian broadcast if oln has exclusive rights. OLN having exclusive right in the US will suck for customers whose providers don't carry oln.

Same goes in canada. they will not be able to show any stanely cup game on oln if their network has an exclusive deal.

Hope that made sense.

Yeah it makes sense. That really sucks. Can anyone confirm that OLN has exclusive rights to the conference finals and the first two games of the SCF?

Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, OLN will televise at least 58 regular-season games. These games will air consistently on Monday and Tuesday nights and be exclusive to the network. OLN will carry the NHL All-Star Game exclusively in the US and will provide wall-to-wall coverage throughout the Stanley Cup Playoffs, including exclusive Conference Final action and the first two games of the Stanley Cup Final. OLN will kick off NHL coverage beginning with the Rangers-Flyers match-up October 5, the first day of the new season.
