        Sounds like NYSPN...the Rangers' private network.  They'd show
        that game a million times if they had to...I hate the Rangers
        even more now than ever because of that %#$(*ing network.  Well...
        the only reason they aren't showing college hockey is there aren't
        any college hockey teams in NYC or Pennsylvania.  ESPN doesn't realize
        that hockey is played outside of those 2 areas.  It sickens me
        to think that a rerun of a game played last year is more exciting
        than watching a LIVE NC$$ hockey game.  Granted, I know that there
        may be contractuaral problems thanx to PRIME/their affiliates, but
        one would think they would at least show live AHL/IHL games.  I'd
        still rather see collegiate hockey.  Just 8 days until the 'Skins
        are on TV...Go Miami! (and maybe they won't use that $@#$@ glow-in
        the dark puck).
