July sports television -- yeah, we're with you in the agony of unappealing programming choices. But the NHL Network is helping out Caps' fans this weekend. Right this moment it's offering up Game 5 of the Caps-Flyers first-round series from April. Tonight at 7:00 fans can settle in with game 6.

That prime-time affair offers a very appealing bit of Flyer fan silencing from #8 at the 2:46 mark of the third period.

For early risers, Game 5 will air again Sunday morning at 7:00. And game 7, contested on Verizon Center's mush, airs as a weekend culminating bit of torture at 7:00 Sunday night.

Hey, it sure beats Arena Football, and we never tire of seeing, and hearing, the Sea of Red.
