    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    I saw monday's game show up in the EPG when I looked earlier today. :up Still nothing for the Wed or Fri games (also both at home and also both showing in HD on FSND) but I'd expect to see the HD feeds for them (baring any technical glitches and whatnot).

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    I think it's likely that they are still working the kinks out. I don't see any reason that they wouldn't show a game in HD if it's also being aired (by DISH) on the RSN in HD. Considering the season just started (and that these HD channels for CI are all new), I'd give it some time before...

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    Yeah, I know how you feel (being a transplanted Red Wings fan, myself). Looking at their TV schedule it looks like Fox Sports Detroit is doing pretty much every home game in HD. My understanding was that the CI channels were mostly mirrors of the RSNs that were turned on at game time. I'd...

    Dish Network Retailer Chat Recap - September 28, 2007

    I'm less interested in the NHL network than in getting actual CI games in HD (at least, from those HD RSNs that are going to already be showing games in HD this year). The "some games will be in HD but they don't have a list yet" comment makes me wonder, though, if it's just going to be the...

    Centre Ice not on DISH this year???

    If you listen to the sound bite from the question and answer from the Charlie Chat, it sounds like they are still ironing out the details for the contract but also that they are confident in working it out. I'd bet that if anything, the part that they are working out is the extra HD content...

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    Pretty much, though it depends on the team and what sort of contracts there will end up being this year (NBC had quite a few games during the playoffs last year as well but Versus still had more, overall, I think). You'd be fine through the regular season without Versus, though. I upgraded...

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    You'll get some games from the first two rounds of the playoffs (depends on the team. For example, Versus carried most of the Red Wings games for the entire playoffs last year. If they were on Versus, they weren't on CI). If there's a team (outside of your local area, of course) that you're...

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    Whew is right. Thanks for posting that. I feel better... Now... I wonder how many games they'll have in HD this year? I'm hoping that's what channels 389-393 are for. :D

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    I hope so and think that's probably the most likely, simple reason. Though I'm a little worried just because two different people have reported CSRs stating that it wasn't being carried this year... An official answer would certainly make me feel better. Count me among those who will consider...

    NHL Center Ice Renewal...

    Wow. Yeah. This is one transplanted Red Wing's fan that'll be mighty ticked if THAT happens. :mad: But wasn't there a handful of channels marked as "NHL HD" that are expected to be for showing HD games from NHL Center Ice that weren't there last season? (390-393- well and 389 from 61.5)?

    History HD - Today?

    HD Notes in Guide One thing I noticed that will be a very nice thing (if it stays this way) is that the Guide for HistHD shows "(HD)" for only certain shows (newer seasons of their main programming it looks like). Discovery networks could learn a few things from these guys.

    With Today's HD Additions, What's Next?!

    I second that. If we get SciFi in HD before the next season of Atlantis starts, I'll be happy. :) Though in the future, I'm also hoping to see more games in HD for NHL Center Ice.
