Wow, so NESN finally fit a Bruins game into their schedule? Sox must not be on, funny how NESN would air a Sox pre-season game any time of the day even if a game was being played at 5 AM in Japan, different story with the Bruins, we get the **** end of the stick.

Yeah I get that NESN is predominately owned by the Sox, but it's BS to us Bruins fans who want to see our team too and we don't even get to see them on NESN +?

 

[TCL40]

No Sox game tonight.

And I wonder why there is a NESN plus. I figure its ratings and too cheap to pay the crew.

I am so excited to watch hockey again-I assume they haven't released whonisnplaying tonight yet.

I kind of hope they try a Kelly-Spooner-Soda line-but have the suspicion that they FO and coaches have decided on Smith.

 

[TP]

I refuse to watch this on NESN. NHLN for me.

 

[bruinsfan001]

Maybe Jack and Brick will explain why their network refuses to cover the other preseason games.

Jack "Well you see Brick the Redsox aren't playing tonight so thats why were here tonight".

People can bash NESN all day long, but if I have my choice of Jack and Brick or some Schmuck like Mike Johnson on NHL Network, it's not even close.

 

[bruinsfan001]

Did anyone notice there are several regular season games that NESN isn't covering as well?

Sat Oct 19, 2013 Bruins vs Lightning (no coverage from anyone)
Sat Dec 14, 2013 Bruins vs Canucks (CBC only)

Wow, that's sad, welcome back to the Middle Ages, Bruins fans.

They just hired Billy Jaffe as a studio analyst though, so intermissions will still be awful.

I actually don't mind that guy he knows his stuff pretty well and usually has a pretty unbiased opinion.

It's one game. I am not staging a sit in at NESN studios or anything.

 

[Flannelman]

for those who can't wait for tonight... NHLN is showing game 7 of Leafs and B's at 11am

Seriously how is this possible? Shouldn't Tampa Bay have some kind of coverage? This just doesn't make any sense if true.

 

[BruinsFan64]

We need a local Bruins Network

BRUISEN

Bruins Entertainment Sports Network!

 

[BruinsFan64]

Those have to be on NBC no? I would think every Bruins game has some coverage, NBC, NESN, NHLN, NBS Sports, something.

They're network probably is but won't be televised in market, nor will the Nucks game.

There's no chance that we don't get some sort of telecast for those games. Be it, NBC or NBCSN, even NESN+...I hope

 

[BruinsFan64]

NESN must be showing Red Sox Dating on Demand that night.

Well, it's on Sun, so at the very least, there will be a Tampa stream.

I like Jaffe

 

[CombatOnContact]

if it's on SUN, then NHL Center Ice should be covering it.

Thank gawd.

 

[Ace0813]

I was looking at the schedule and there's a BUNCH of games with no television coverage information.. but that's just on the mobile app. Perhaps it's inaccurate.

Every Bruins game is on NESN/NESN+ unless it's picked up by a national carrier. If it says otherwise it's a mistake.

Bingo, we have a winner. Cannot wait to hear Jack again, beats turds on Leafs TV, TSN, or CBC
