TV schedule for hockey playoffs

The American readers of this blog have probably had difficulty finding hockey on the TV this year. So where are the playoffs? If you live close to the border, the CBC will have a number of games. RDS (Montreal only) and TSN (mostly American teams) will also have games.

In the states in areas where you can't get the CBC, try OLN. If necessary, ask your cable company what an OLN is. I haven't been impressed with their coverage at all, but at least you can see the games. Also, NBC will have scattered action as its schedule has holes in them. And the American networks will actually have to cover Canadian teams, as long as they are alive in the playoffs.

Good luck finding your team on the ice and on your TV.
