WJC on tv

[cbuckser]

TSN will broadcast all of Team Canada's games.

I am trying to figure out how I can watch the games in Northern California.  If I can acquire that information (big dish coordinates?), I will post it.   Likewise, if somebody else learns how to get a satellite feed in the US (other than by watching near the Canadian border), I would appreciate having that information.

Thank you.

I seem to recall reading something saying that YES would be carrying the USA games.  Can anyone confirm this?

[cbuckser]

YES will televise the USA's playoff games.  There will be audio broadcasts of all of the USA's games on usahockey.com.

Listen in to all the action from the U.S. games at the World Junior Championship right here at USAHockey.com! Join play-by-play announcer Jim Rich as he calls all the games from Nova Scotia, and check back for the link to the audiocasts.

In addition, all U.S. playoff games will be televised on the YES Network (DirecTV Ch. 622).

As Peterg notes on a different thread, the NHL Center Ice package is broadcasting tonight's Canada-Sweden game.  The game can be seen on channel 549 on Dish Network.

The Center Ice Package is broadcasting today's Canada-Czech Rep. game.  TSJ's coverage begins at 1:30 EST.  If you have Dish Network, the game will be on channel 540.

Can you get these games on DirectTV too?  

Perhaps I'll start a thread when the time comes, but I'll be moving in March and I want to know what the best TV package will be for watching Cornell sports.  Is the YES network available on satellite?  DirectTV vs. Dish?  Paper or plastic?

[Al DeFlorio]

YES is available on DirecTV as part of the sports package that includes just about every Fox Sports station on the planet as well as Empire and probably a few others.  But it doesn't seem to include whoever it is that's doing the Canada team's WJC games.

Fleury got another shutout for Canada.  It is going to be hard for LeNeveu to get into a game.

Seems to me if they're ever gonna play him it would be against Germany.

[cbuckser]

TSN's tv coverage of the Canada-Germany game, which Dave LeNeveu will start (as noted in another thread) begins at 2:30 pm EST.  The puck should drop at about 3:10 EST.  The game will be broadcast on channel 543 on Dish Network.  I don't know which channel the game will be broadcast on Direct TV.

[Scott Kominkiewicz \'84]

Thanks, Al.  Do you have DirectTV?  If you do, are you satisfied with it (other than not being able to watch today's WJC game)?

1-0 germany after the first

[Al DeFlorio]

We're very happy with DirecTV so far.  Picture quality is much better than the AT&T cable we had before.  Only concern is their financial situation, and whether they'll survive if the merger (takeover?) with Dish is not approved.

center ice freakin rocks. can vs. finland on tonite at 7. i'm 99.9% certain you won't be seeing lenny but i'm still happier than a 300 pound kid in a candy store. guess i won't be scrubbing off my many maple leaf tatoos just yet!

[REDhead]

Melissa, have a blast watching LeNeveu in goal tonite! Seems like you're a big personal fan so you must be flyin' high at this point, even tho the general Canadian-on-the-street seems to have doubts about Dave's abilities.

We know better, eh?

Does anyone know if there will be any webcast of the game?
