I will happily take either.

Although I dont think EJ is as big a need as people think, we have some fine young defensemen already in Whitney and Welch and Orpik got better as the season progressed. I dont want to wait 3 years before EJ hits the league. We really need some decent pure goal scoring wingers.

[Al Wilson]

That's more like it.

[SoCalBronco]

Nice hit by Phaneuf.

[SoCalBronco]

penalty on the ducks. PP Calgary

[SoCalBronco]

McCarty scores on a nice pass from behind the net. Calgary wins.

[Breck Bronc]

Kirk Maltby and Darren McCarty score overtime goals on the same night. The odds on that happening are astronomical.

I'm not too happy with OLN's first night of playoff coverage. They should just show all of the games on Canadian TV like they did with the Flames/Ducks. I can't stand listening to Jack Edwards call hockey games.

I"m not happy with this whole NHL on OLN crap at all. Can you imagine what people that normally watch that channel are saying?

"What in the cotton pickin hell, whar's my elk matin? Got this dadgummed hockey on my channel!"

Again, what in the hell was Bettman thinking?

[Bronx33]

Crap! i thought bull riding would be televised for sure.

[Mtbrncofn]

I can get bull riding on another channel, if I'm so inclined. These damn games, I can't.

Is my irritation showing at all, or am I doing just a damned good job of covering it up like I think I am?

You seem rather calm and every letter on your keyboard seems to be working (for now) i expect things to change.

[Mtbrncofn]

I thought so too. Thanks Bronx!
You know, I'm doing so good with this, I think I'll just go drop an email to Dish about this whole dropping of OLN thing. You think they have an F word filter?

[Mtbrncofn]

This doesn't sound too harsh, does it? I didn't even drop any F bombs.

Hello,

What in the hell is going on with the OLN deal? I'm so close to moving over to Direct TV over this. The idiots that be in the NHL got together with the idiots that be at OLN and got this stupid deal together that screws hockey fans over.

And then Dish jumps in on the act when they decide to drop OLN. I could have cared less about OLN. I had OLN on that damn programming package for years, and never used it, but I go to use it for the first time ever when they put hockey on, and ZING! there it goes.

Do you people realize there are Stanley Cup final games being televised that I can't watch because of this moronic decision?

So thanks a bunch for ruining my Stanley Cup playoff viewing.

Geez, I kinda sound like Mock there. Scary. We'll see what they have to say to that. Hope they have an F word filter on the return email thing.

[Bronx33]

LET ER RIP! just use one of these * to get your point across.

[Mtbrncofn]

I sent it a bit ago. Those a-holes.

Follow up emails are cool too.

[Mtbrncofn]

You mean me send another one, or wait til they cuss me out and then send another one?

Dear Dish Network,

Get a clue.

What in the hell is going on with the OLN deal? Where the **** is my NHL? STFU. You cant even bring an argument. I'm so close to moving over to Direct TV over this. Beezer's so ****ing pissed he's chewing on his own tail so get off my back. The idiots that be in the NHL got together with the idiots that be at OLN and got this stupid deal together that screws hockey fans over.

Don't you know that Montana will evicerate you? STFU. Get ****ing hockey on my TV or you'll get whats coming to you. Sit down and shut up. Montana told you not to to dump OLN. Montana told you she'd ****ing make life hell for Dish Network. I'm practically in tears. This is un****ingbelievable. Montana's kittens wont stand for this. Get ****ing hockey on my tv, Dish Network! Im sick of this inbred duck hunting, bull riding shiat. STFU.
And then Dish jumps in on the act when they decide to drop OLN. Montana had OLN on that damn programming package for years, and never used it, but Montana goes to use it for the first time ever when they put hockey on, and ZING! there it goes. Remember, Montana told you this would happen when the ****ing league got greedy for money and spurned ESPN and and went with some ****ing hick network that about 100 people in the whole ****ing country watch. Hell even Beezer wont watch this shiat, but no one listened to her.

Listen you dimwits, do you people realize there are Stanley Cup final games being televised that I can't watch because of this moronic decision? Sit down and shutup.

Don't tell me the network made a "reorganizing decision". STFU.

Thanks a bunch for ruining my Stanley Cup playoff viewing. Ridiculous.

[Mtbrncofn]

I thought they valued customer feedback. That was good feedback, damnit!

Oh holy ****! I just woke everyone up laughing like a jackass in here! That was hysterical!

You rule, SoCal!

[24champ]

OLN sucks balls!

I mean I was watching the Red Wings game at a freinds place and its the third period and the wings look like they were about to blow it with a penalty. What happens right at the end of the 3rd period with 50 something seconds to go? "technical difficulties" is what happened. OLN better get there shiat together, this is playoff hockey not the regular season. Oh and I couldnt even get the Calgary/Ducks game on OLN!!! Not a big deal, thank god for FOXSPORTS WEST. Cannot believe Im going to give ESPN props but this made me miss ESPN's coverage of NHL Hockey.

[Bronx33]

4 to 5 day breaks during the season with no hockey televised, but hey i had the center ice package for free until the olympic break then they cut me off so i turned to OLN (a complete disgrace to professional sports) plenty of rodeo and turkey hunting though.
