I am still locating my jaw right now, but let me tell you what I have heard today in the event that the series goes to six or seven games.
I went to a memorial day cookout at my friend's house. His friend works at Local 12 as a sports producer, and he told me that if the series comes back to Cincinnati, his bosses are talking about the possibility of putting the potential games Six and Seven on the CinCW (Channel 12 owns that station). Now, he said there is some arguments against it as well and it may not happen. They are just talking about it.
I also did a little snooping on the net and it does not look like any other television but the B2 Network will be covering the three games in Las Vegas. The games would still be radioed by 96Rock as usual.

But, why would a local station carry a game that is played locally? Makes no sense to me. Away games....that is a different story.

| Its just what I was told... I have no idea why home games would be broadcast... Back in the Sportschannel days, FSN Ohio usually covered the Cyclones home games until about the 1997 season. |

| I have a few old Cyclones games of old on tape. One (I think ) is from the second year team (ECHL)where Ken Broo and Jay Rose are doing the Broadcast. I have another from Indianapolis on Halloween night. I'm going to have to dig them out as I think I may have the two mixed up. The are sweet memories though either way !!! |

| Putting it on tv decreases the chance people will come out to the game, obviously. I would love for all the games to be on tv because I cant afford to get season tickets and what not but its just not popular enough around here. |
