In the last few channels there is a channel simply called "Star Choice." Otherwise, they just advertise on that channel for themselves. But when there is a WHL game on SHAW, they televise it there. I think it's in the #400 channel range. #401?? Check it out.

Past experience with WHL games on Starchoice have had them on 299. Give that channel a try.

I'm listening to the Oilers vs Canucks game tonight and they just a thing on the Hitmen vs Broncos saying that the Broncos were one of the best if not thee best team in the second half in reference to the WHL. They mentioned about Calgary being the top ranked team but Swift has been playing very good hockey. It'll be a good series....watch out!!!

Can't wait till tomorrow and saturday!!!

I heard that too. I'm hoping my Nucks can score three goals here soon or it's season over. I'm thinking Dave Nonnis might be gone next year, just my gut feeling.

Canucks sure haven't capatilized on their PP chances eh?
