Well here's the WABI schedule as of August 6th.  Last year WMTW showed a few
of the games that WABI carried but not all I don't believe.  I'm in Richmond
in the WABI viewing area so I didn't really keep track.  My brother lives in
the Portland area and saw some of the games on Channel 8.

I wrote and I was told that they are under contractual obligations that
prevent them from showing hockey.



do you know if WABI showed the games last year?  I know that WMTW showed
them last year, but I thought that WABI and not the ABC affilliate showed
the games up there last year.  If that is the case, then maybe WMTW will
show them again this year even thought it is a CBS station that is carrying
the games in Bangor.



it is worth a shot asking WMTW if they will show the games again.

As we get closer to the home opener next weekend, and I realize that am now
beyond the WABI coverage area in Southern Maine, the chances for me catching
any TV games that are not on NESN or CSTV are slim.

To other Southern Maine fans-
I have emailed WGME, the CBS affiliate from Portland urging them to carry at
least a few of the games that WABI is televising. The addresses I found
were:
[log in to unmask] station manager
[log in to unmask] sports director
[log in to unmask] general comments

It's worth a shot to email them with the request, best case senario, we see
some games in Southern Maine(other than on the watchmainesports.com feed);
worst case, we'll be driving north to catch them in person!!

Thanks, Ruth
