NHL Center Ice missing ATL vs. Edmonton 1/20/08 ????

Hey Gang,

Does anyone know why this game disappeared from the Dish Network schedule? I had it ready to record on my DVR and for some reason the game seems to have disappeared from all Center Ice schedules. FYI, Edmonton is broadcasting on Rogers Sportsnet West so there is indeed a feed.

If anyone has Center Ice online can you tell if it's available via the internet? Or for that much if the game is available anywhere else?

It could be due to NBC's rights to broadcast the NHL on Sunday afternoon exclusively. They have the Bruins and Rangers nationally
This happened last year with at least one Montreal/Ottawa game.

<rant warning> - NBC is notorious for not broadcasting any games with a Canadian team or teams. They are on record as saying that it kills ratings - yeah their huge ratings on the NHL - although they have the Canadiens on next week
