No doubt, considering the game will not be on TV. Sadness.

This really sucks! Versus and the NHL screw us again!

Chris Bourque's first game and a game the Caps have an outside shot at winning, and we can't see any of it. Thanks Versus!!

No one has TV of this game tonight. Thanks Versus and the NHL.

From Ted's Take - http://ted.aol.com/index.php?ID=1390

"The Washington-Atlanta game Tuesday night will not be televised in either market as it falls during an excusive national broadcast window for Versus, which will be televising the New York Rangers-New York Islanders game. Versus broadcasts an exclusive game of the week on Monday or Tuesday night each week during the season. This is the only Caps game this year which will not be televised."

Thats ridiculous. WTF kind of TV deal with the NHL allows a two-bit channel to have exclusive rights? Fine, they can carry the only national broadcast, but to essentially black out other markets from showing their home teams?

If the NHL wants to keep this policy, they should only schedule the game that will be televised by VS.
