NESN Bruins/Red Sox Conflict Tonight

[hperry]

Tonight, the Bruins playoff game is at the same time as the red sox game. NESN handles this on cable networks by offering NESNPlus to air the extra game (in this case, bruins would be on NESN and sox on NESNPlus). Will Dish do the same? Will we get both games in HD (or at all?) or will we only get the Bruins? Right now, all I see on the schedule is Bruins...I see nothing about a temp channel being turned on for the sox.

Don't forget that Direct also carries the NESN alternate feed as well.

Check 442 HD and 449 SD.

The last conflict had the Bruins/Canadiens(I think) game on the NESN alternative channel and it was in HD so the Red Sox game should be in HD on the alt channel. Go B's!!!

629 as if it makes any difference to a DiSH Network Subscriber.

I know. Just clarifying his first post where he mentioned cable as providing the alternate feed. Just adding to it. No other intent involved.

It was on 446 last time but tonight NESN ALT HD is 442. Don't get why they switch it around.
