Anaheim-Detroit Hockey Game Blackout - What's going on?

[jborchel]

Game is blacked out for me. Called DTV and agent told me game rights were bought by Comcast so anyone not on Comcast Cable nationwide was blacked out. This can't be true can it?

Where are you ?

If your not in the Detroit or Ducks markets, it should be available on NBC Sports

If you are inside the local rights area of one of the teams in the playoffs for the first round you have to watch the game on your local Regional sports network and NOT on the national carrier.

NBC games are NBC only

No, NBC has these games. This one is on NBC Sports

Correct, but at the moment there are no games scheduled to be on NBC proper.

CNBC and NBC sports. I assume we'll see the finals on NBC proper.
