Anyone know if games will be shown FoxSportsWest for the first couple rounds?
FIRST ROUND
Every first-round Stanley Cup Playoff game will be televised on a national platform.
In order to televise as many as four games on a given day/night, the NBC Sports Group will utilize NBC, NBCSN, CNBC and the NHL Network to carry first-round games.
NBCSN will be the primary home of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, offering coverage of one or two games virtually every night of the first round. NBC will present exclusive afternoon coverage during the weekends of April 19-20 and 26-27.
CNBC and NHL Network will also provide live coverage in primetime. Games airing on NBCSN, CNBC and the NHL Network will be subject to local blackouts in the first round.
Local blackouts? Plus I don't get NHL Network
Local blackout usually means a team's own broadcasters ARE doing the games, so people in that market would get their own feed. The NHL wouldn't NOT show the Kings in LA, Flyers in Philly, Blackhawks in Chicago, etc.
So good news. LA area fans get local for the first two rounds and Kings fans elsewhere get nbc
