| | | What is the point of blacking out replays? LOL just another common sense blunder. Thank goodness the NHL doesn't enforce. Dish blacks out NCAA and NBA replays, does Directv as well?

Blackouts are something that will NEVER ever be completely understood. They have never made any sense to me and they probably never will unless their policies change. And yes, it's not the provider that does the blackout, it's the sport itself. And replay blackouts are beyond insane and NO bit of trying to explain that to me will ever make me understand.

So by this thread can I safely assume that the NHL does NOT black out replays? I had considered the sports package (at $6 per month) as an option to Center Ice (at $160+/year) but I was not sure if I would get replays.

I tuned in last night to a replay of the Penguins vs. Ducks game of 11/16/09 and got the ''not available" message. I live in the L.A. area.

The NHL blacks out replays in the teams local market. So any replay involving the MN Wild for me is blacked out being in MN. The rest I can see

You are blacked out of Twins Classics on 436 because you are in the Brewers territory. You get 436 because there isnt a FSN Wisconsin full time on either Dish. You should be blacked out of the Wolfies though
