NBC, NHL renew their deal through 2010-11 season
The NBC and NHL have extended their revenue-sharing partnership through the 2010-11 season, which will allow the two entities to remain cozy through the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, televised by NBC, of course.
NBC's coverage of the 2009-10 season will begin New Year's Day with the Flyers-Bruins tilt at Fenway.
For the next four days I will try to simultaneously practice on our new blogging platform - which launches Monday - and provide content on the old one.
Be patient, please. And be advised that if you have an RSS feed for WatchDog, you probably will have to reestablish it next week, should you be so inclined.

The arguments about "keeping ticket prices" in line has been rendered inoperative with the Rangers raising ticket prices 6-9% following a first round playoff exit, who refuse to allow other cable companies to get their HD feed.
Pretty good work for a Cornell class of 74 graduate.
Pretty sure that Fios is one of the only major providers without MSG HD, if not the only one.
