For the second time this month, TimeWarner Cable has switched away from an NHL playoff game in progress to a %^&$*&# INFOMERCIAL!
The first time it happened was during that 4-OT game in Round 1. So okay, it was 3 a.m. and mistakes happen.
But this time it happened during regulation play, and at a time that their own schedule showed hockey.
They tried to blame it on Versus, but somehow every other cable system in the world managed to keep on showing the hockey game.

Take my advice, folks. If you have any choice in the matter, DO NOT get cable service from the incompetent idiots at TimeWarner!

I could watch online if I lived in Canada.
All I can do here in the US is listen to the audio of the game.
