Free preview of NHL Center Ice for the first three weeks of the season (October 1-October24). I believe all major cable providers, DirecTV and Dish Network are involved.

FYI

I am a Directv subscriber (not quite 2 years) and called in to voice my concern about the loss of Versus. They offered me NHL Center Ice 50% off.

And my understanding is some have gotten it free if they raise a big enough stink.

Edit: Ok, this one is just as good (apparently they put this one out right after they swept the Canadiens:

Can someone please tell me what kind of precedent the NHL is trying to set these days? That we don't check and we are turning this into Euro hockey? We can't hip check anymore?

He's a repeat offender, thats why he got suspended. Ott is a dirty player and has made a career off of cheap hits. This hit wasn't the worst but the NHL is trying to send a message to him, he also had a knee on knee in this game.

This puck daddy blog will shed some more light on why he was suspended.

Say what you want, that was a plain old hip check. I don't care if he has been suspended 40 times, that is not a suspendable hit if your golden boy Crosby does it. In fact, those same people calling it dirty would be talking about Sidney "laying it on the line for his team," "just an old school hockey player," "he can get gritty too." That is how it would be and you know it.

Easy killer, Im not trying to defend the league Im just trying to show you why he was suspended. It was his past that did him in not the hit.

Not really trying to get on you, I am just making a valid point on how it would have went down had Crosby or even Malkin made the exact same check.

I saw them review that play and some others during the Wild game Monday on Versus, I agree with the twerps on Versus that the hip check was a legal check but it was really done for no reason...the puck was clearly passed away. In the end that wasn't a dirty hit, just a ole hip check...
