I did it too. Let that be a lesson to everyone. Just don't sit around b****ing. And lets not forget about the World Championship.

i'm impressed guys, looks like it might have worked!

nothing like a bunch of angry hockey fans to wake up those stupid ESPN programmers! "oh my god, they dont have the NHL, they will die if we dont give them this final, we have to save them!"

Now I would recommend that EVERYONE sent an e-mail THANKING ESPN for broadcasting the WJC tournament and let them know just how many people appreciate the effort (of flipping a freakin' switch to get the TSN feed mind you) and that their advertizers will benefit from the decision. Someone know the email addy?

I emailed them too even though I get TSN...I don't even get ESPN but it pissed me off when I hear that they play poker or scrabble or 40 year old football games instead of live hockey.

If you have ESPN, you should see it.

Not to concern anyone, but I just checked the ESPN site again to "What to look for" and it doesnt mention the WJC anymore.

I sent them one then after I saw that they had changed their programming, I got up from my desk in Ohio and went immediately over to a window and looked to see if hell had frozen over.

Seems very concerning for non-Canadians who want to see the game. Maybe they are just hiding it so as not to anger the NASCAR junkies or something like that. Let them pretend hockey doesn't exist and while they are watching football, air the hockey game.
