You can thank the great Dolan for you missing the Ranger game.

It's just like the whole Yes scandal.

OLN is supposed to be included in basic cable. (It is in many markets.) Cablevision does NOT include OLN in its basic package, as you know it is an extra monthly. OLN refuses to broadcast any hockey games to any cable company that does not carry OLN as part of its basic package (ie. Cablevision).

Here is where it gets fun. So you say, that's OK, I'll get DirectTV or DishNetwork, scr3w them Dolans... well, Cablevision/MSG/FSN won't come to a deal with DirectTV/DishNetwork for their 'regular' sports channels (MSG/FSN/etc), so any local hockey games (Isles/Rag$/Sabres) are blocked out. So, you can get all hockey on OLN, but not the regular hockey feeds, so if your team is not on OLN often, it is a waste unless you buy the center ice package.

Soo... this leaves NY area hockey fans with 2 options; Satellite + Center Ice package (get the game from the other team's feed) or Cable + MSG/FSN, and you miss all the OLN games if you don't buy the Center Ice package to watch via the other team's feed.

I've learned too much about this over the past 2 weeks!
