I see on ussoccer.com that NBC Sports Network is televising this game. But on my DirecTV schedule it says they are airing a hockey game instead. Anyone know the situation?
Yeah, there is a conflict between Game 7 and the Friendly. A little info on it: http://fangsbites.com/2012/05/nbc-sports-group-announces-coverage-of-nhl-conference-finals/ However it looks like that won't be the case as of now:
It's scheduled for NBCSN, but there's some question about what will happen if the Western Conference finals reach game 7 (LA leads 3-1), which is to be at the same time. nhl.com currently has no US TV network listed for that game, even though it shows NBCSN for all of the other "if necessary" games. Most likely one game or the other would get shifted to CNBC, which had a lot of NHL playoffs in the previous rounds.
Thanks to Dustin Penners OT goal - Kings win Game #5 - 4-3 and the series 4-1. So theres no chance for a Game #7 on Saturday night and thus no conflict -the United States-Scotland match will be televised on NBCSN - at 8:00 pm ET.
