With the excitement surrounding the NHL returning to Winnipeg, Abaza's sister city, NHL on AbazaTV will be expanded this year. The following (very) tentative schedule has 177 regular season games. Where there is a time conflict between games, a broadcast will be shown on a delayed basis (taped).
For a couple of years now AbazaTV has been paying tribute to the nostalgic and often forgotten NHL on CTV, which was an attempt by the Carling O'Keefe brewery family to break into the NHL broadcast game and try and get some of what was a monopoly at the time for CBC and Molson's. Read more about it at this wikipedia page.
I remember getting to see these teams, especially the eastern seaboard teams like Hartford, Washington, and New Jersey, as well as Quebec which you seldom saw back in the pre-cable (TSN) days. One thing I vividly remember was some of the very dark arenas that the games were broadcast from. So, in tribute AbazaTV chose the game with the least exposure to broadcast on Friday nights; 7:00pm est games from Souteast division cities, or New Jersey if possible. There is actually an entire pecking order of deciding factors including start time preference for 6:00pm CST, not a Canadian visiting team, and a list of secondary hosts like Pittsburgh, Columbus, Chicago, NY Islanders, and Buffalo.
But with the addition of Winnipeg to the schedule this year the new team's games take first preference. Then the Carling O'Keefe game of the week, then the Hockey Night in Canada broadcasts, and then the occasional other game tossed into the mix. Saturday afternoons I can remember there being broadcast back in the 70's some
