NHL Network and Comcast Corporation, the nation’s leading provider of entertainment, information and communication products and services, today announced a long-term agreement with the NHL Network to add the network to its Digital Classic level of service by the start of the 2009-10 NHL season. Under the terms of the agreement, the NHL Network will reach nearly two-thirds of the Comcast’s total digital customer base.

This is fantastic. NHL to go with NFL and the already available MLB. My only question is, will they have a Friday Night Hockey or something? The NFL and MLB have Thursday night exclusive broadcasts, maybe we can get Vs. Monday and Tuesday, NHLNetwork Friday/Saturday.

Its OK
I get the hockey package since I don’t have access to Flyers games on my cable system (Cablevision- another crap filled product from the people that bring you the NY Rangers and Knicks) and sometimes games are on it and in HD. Sometimes its the Flyers even. There are no set nights unfortunately, I would simply find out it was there when I didn’t see the Flyers game listed among package channels. The announcers are local to one of the 2 teams just like the package. Other programming is cool, vintage games, Captains profiles, top 10 this and top 10 that.
btw, F THE PENS!!!

If you have FIOS, you have it already. It’s pretty cool.

This is great. I love the NHL network and getting it “free” on comcast is even better.

You wont have to pay for it on top of paying for digital cable? That is great . . .

The NHL network was available last season on demand…but you had to pay for it…just like the NFL network is no longer free., the NBA network you have to pay for too…I don’t know about the MLB network if that’s free or not…
But with CSN Philly, anytime I missed a Flyers game…since I work in the evenings, that happens a lot….I can go on demand to CSN Philly and see a replay of the game for free.
