I'm pretty sure it'll be available on DTV by the end of the month. So,
any day now.

i've got it too, now. didn't think my local rinky-dink cable company
would pick it up. i have center ice, so i'm not sure if it's part of
that, or just a freebie for a week, or what.

i flipped it on during the flyers game tonight, and the first thing i
saw was a 1991 playoff game between the wings and blues that didn't
seem to have any particular importance. hopefully this type of
programming isn't typical.

As a side note to people who have DirecTV: if you want their new HD
programming (as of Sept. '07) you have to get a new dish and receiver,
even if you have the old HD package (as I did). If you have Center
Ice, it's definitely worth it--about half the games so far have been
on in HD. I was offered a deal by them that included a new dish/HD
receiver + installation for 'free' with a new 2-year contract. You can
also choose to upgrade to an HD DVR for $200 (which I did). There are
quite a few HD channels now, including VS. It's great being able to
watch the Flyers games in HD after the kids have gone to bed. Plus you
can replay trhe good/bad stuff over and over again and really see
what's going on.

The NHL network is not part of Center Ice.
