What: Carolina Hurricanes vs. Los Angeles Kings
When: 7:00 P.M.

Well would you look at that... there is a team in North Carolina above .500.

The Hurricanes are at home tonight against the L.A. Kings on the end of a back to back.

The Hurricanes are currently in fifth place in the Eastern Conference and third place in the Metropolitan Division.

A win tonight would allow the Canes to maintain pace with the Penguins and Islanders in the division race.

I'm back after a off work nap. WTF this poo aint televised. This would've been a perfect time to see them.

[KillerKat]

BTW, why the fug is Riley Nash an extra? What has Bret Suter, Bowman, or Westgarth done?

[KillerKat]

Ok, found the game. It's on some weird channel called SportSouth. Apparently if you have basic cable, you're poo out of luck when it's on that channel.

TV FAQs:

I live in South Carolina… Why don’t I get every game?
South Carolina is considered the Hurricanes’ “outer market” as designated by the NHL (for those of you interested in the terminology, North Carolina is the team’s “sphere of influence,” and the 50-mile radius around Raleigh is the team’s creatively-named, “50-mile home territory.”) Given that, FOX has the option of how many games they take to the “outer market,” and pays associated fees to the NHL based on that.

For the 2013-14 season, 71 of the 81 games that will be televised by FOX Sports Carolinas and SportSouth will go to South Carolina. The dates of the 10 games that will not go to the “outer market” are: 10/11, 10/13, 11/12, 11/15, 11/18, 1/23, 2/8, 3/7, 4/5 and 4/11.

Why do I see the Hurricanes in Georgia and even parts of Alabama?
Since the Atlanta Thrashers departed for the colder temperatures and the flatter topography of Winnipeg, there is a hole in the NHL’s regional broadcast territory. Since that territory is served by FOX Sports South, the NHL has given the network the right to split the former Thrashers broadcast territory between the Hurricanes and the Nashville Predators.

Thus, 47 of the 81 games televised by FOX Sports Carolinas and SportSouth will go to Georgia and parts of Alabama. The dates of those games are: 10/4, 10/6, 10/10, 10/15, 10/17, 10/19, 10/24, 10/25, 10/28, 11/2, 11/9, 11/16, 11/21, 11/24, 11/29, 12/1, 12/6, 12/9, 12/10, 12/20, 12/29, 12/31, 1/4, 1/7, 1/9, 1/10, 1/13, 1/19, 1/21, 1/24, 1/27, 1/28, 2/4, 2/7, 3/1, 3/2, 3/4, 3/8, 3/13, 3/15, 3/16, 3/22, 3/29, 3/31, 4/1, 4/3, 4/13.

At midnight, sometimes I see the Hurricanes, sometimes I see the Predators. What’s up with that?
That’s right, you do! FOX Sports South shows 2-hour replays of games across the entire FOX Sports South region, and alternates the schedule between the Hurricanes and the Nashville Predators (the Predators’ network, FOX Sports Tennessee, is also part of the larger FOX Sports South region).

lol @ SC being "out of market". Suck it SC!

[KillerKat]

I still wanna know why Nash is an extra. That poo is pissing me off!

[KillerKat]

God our jerseys look terrible

Due to L.A.'s physicality, Carolina went with the most physical lineup they had.

 

Unfortunately, Elias Lindholm probably should have been the extra because he has been in the dressing room longer than he has been on the ice.
