Games on T.V.

Much to my dismay, Games 1 and 2 of the Finals are on Versus, which I don't get out here in Iowa. I know that someone had posted awhile back about how to get Pirates games over the internet. I assume the same site can be used to get hockey games. Any suggestions would be helpful.
I cannot believe that the NHL wants to put the Stanley Cup Finals on Versus. How many people actually get that channel anyway? This is maybe the dumbest marketing move in the history of sports.

I hear ya IAbuc but the regular networks as well as the cable sports networks wanted nothing to do with the NHL a couple years ago when they signed with Versus aka OLN. Versus offered the most money and the league went for it allowing Versus to have exclusive tv rights to at least the first 4 games of each playoff series.
I know it sucks. Believe it or not the Pens are opening the Mellon Arena for fans to come and watch games 1 & 2 there. Have no idea of the admission price but it sounds like a winner to me.

This is the one coach posted, IA.

It has a NHL thread, but I did't look in it. I wanted to check the site and get out of there quick since I am at work.

Someone told me it was $5. I have not tried to confirm that, thought.

It's not a big deal. I'm driving to a sports bar 40 miles away. I'll see it there.
