Cinebrat Posted June 10, 2009 #26 Share Posted June 10, 2009 As long as the NBA Finals game isn't going on, I don't see why they wouldn't have the game on. I have seen them play hockey games before in the bars, as long as there is no other sport on. Why doesn't hockey ever get any love? Does that ship have a sports bar or pub. GO PENS!!!

hockeyfan5 Posted June 10, 2009 Author #28 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Quite a game last night! I told my husband that I am never, EVER going away this time of year again. What if my beloved Blues were playing? (Well, then I would be at the game, and he'd be on the ship.) I didn't think this trip out very well. GO PENS!!!

YumPo Posted June 10, 2009 #31 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Unfortunately when we were on the Grandeur during the semifinals, we had the worst time getting any information on the results. ESPN coverage was spotty at best and covered basketball constantly, or the French Open, or Ladies Softball, or whatever else they felt like. Of course, NBC was supposed to cover the Stanley Cup Finals, but dropped games 3 and 4 for some junky reality show. Perhaps you'll be able to pick up something-- at leastyou have a better chance than we did. GO PENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushyescrim Posted June 10, 2009 #32 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I was on the Freedom about a month ago, and there was no NBC feed available anywhere on the dial. I had hoped to catch the sunday night baseball game on ESPN and it was not available either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they can show on the ship's TVs (and if the program is on the lounge TVs it is available in your stateroom as well), depends on the contractual arrangements that the cruise line has with the television network or with the sports leagues. I don't believe that they currently have arrangements with NBC that allows them to carry any sports programs from that network which will probably doom your chances of seeing Game 7 between the Penguins and the Red Wings. Not too worry, everyone knows that the ultimate winner will be the .... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruislovin Posted June 10, 2009 #34 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Remind me again how many games the Penguins have won in the playoffs in Detroit................ Only ONE since that is all that's needed - Friday, June 12, 2009 GO PENS :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyfan5 Posted June 10, 2009 Author #35 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I wouldn't be feeling too confident about the Wings right now! Pittsburgh has the momentum at the moment. Wish Game 7 was being played in Pittsburgh, but THE PENS CAN DO IT!! GO PENS!!! Make those Red Wings choke on a few octopi! (If only I'd be able to see the game! We blanked out our calendar next year- no trips until later in June! Maybe next year my Blues will be in this position, and I'll be sitting at the game rather than on a cruise ship. Love to cruise, but not as much as I'd love to be at the Stanley Cup final!) GO PENS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amybeth4 Posted June 11, 2009 #37 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I would HIGHLY suggest you DVR the game. If it's nowhere onboard, then chances are much less that by the time you get home you will have heard the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waywill Posted June 11, 2009 #38 Share Posted June 11, 2009 If you really want to see it then spend the bucks and watch part of it or the whole game on the Ships internet.120 min.package should do the trick.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArizonaSky Posted June 13, 2009 #44 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Love you Wings! Great game Pens. I grew up in MI and my dad's company had a box at the Joe. I miss going to games! Osgood will always be one of my favorites. He used to live right by us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
