hearts151 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I'm hearing virgin media has made a deal over nhl with premier sports. Not that it matters to us I guess lol.

Lol the guy told me nhl but he's a major nhl fan (fav sport) so could be whole channel but that don't make sense considering there subscribtion costs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester™ Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 (edited) Seems its announced and it appears it was down to lobbying from Rugby League fans! http://www.sthelenss...World_Cup_2013/ http://about.virginmedia.com/press-release/9403/premier-sports-launches-on-virgin-media Edited October 25, 2013 by Chester?

Manny1874 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Vanek traded to the Islanders for Matt Moulson. There is a pretty good summary of the deal here http://blogs.thescore.com/nhl/2013/10/28/vanek-for-moulson-did-garth-snow-get-fleeced-or-were-his-hands-tied-by-ownership/ . I don't really see the point in making the trade for the Isles, we get a guy with a bigger contract (same length though), who produce roughly the same, but give up 2 draft picks for the pleasure of getting Vanek. This is before you even bother to look at the teams real problems which need addressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboInSouthsea Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Yeah Budaj looked pretty decent last game I saw him.

Chester™ Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 In UK Hockey News, Premier Sports have agreed a TV deal with the Elite League and they will show one game per week: http://www.premiersports.tv/ice-hockey/elite-league-ice-hockey/elite-league-about-the-coverage.html In more news, the coverage will be fronted by the excellent Aaron Murphy rather than the ###### that is Dave Simms.
