Here in the states press coverage for the NHL is very small at best and ESPN you have to sit thur all the golf basketball and nascar highlight to see a three second summary so i go to the Hockey night in Canada website , i just rewatched the Leafs Flyers game from last sat night and i love Don's jacket that jacket is very loud

Jen, you should check out either nhl.com or tsn.ca for good hockey coverage. It is certainly better than the coverage on espn.com.

Yep. It is the website for the Canadian television channel called TSN(The Sports Network).

Another sports channel that has a website is sportsnet.ca .

I always thought it meant Toronto Sports Network. At least that's what everyone outside of southern Ontario thinks.

And I thought it stood for The Sports of Nunavut.

They're based in Toronto, and like them or not, the Leafs are a huge market. It makes sense that they would focus on them at tsn.ca. I know that sportsnet the television channel has a feed for the east and west coasts respectively, so that helps the exposure for the western teams(for NHL hockey) and the east coast for Junior hockey.

At last, win #3 for the Devils on Friday.

I wonder if they can claim back-to-back wins by beating the Kings tonight in game 4 of a 6 game road trip?

Jen, my experience is that there's great hockey coverage in five of the NHL Original Six cities: Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Montreal, and Toronto (New York, not so much).

National coverage sucks, because hockey always was a regional sport (until they let teams exist in places that we've already discussed ad infinitum last year, where ice doesn't form naturally!).

Here in SJ our local newspaper the Couier Post does a decent job covering the Flyers and does a so so job covering the Devils but next to nothing on the rest of the NHL but saddly the The Eagles and 76ers dominate the sports coverage
