If any of you have DirecTV and like hockey, read on.

Call up and do the "I want to cancel" option. You will be redirected to customer retention. Tell them you are a huge hockey fan and that you want to switch to Dish Network as they have Versus and offered to give you NHL Center Ice for free as an incentive to switch. DirecTV will offer to give you Center Ice for free to stay as a customer. Profit.

Both my dad and I did this, and theres a big post on HFBoards about it working as well. I guess DirecTV is really under orders to keep customers through this whole Versus thing.

I love customer retention plans. Might try this with Starchoice for shiggles.

It doesn't help that it still is on a outdoor life network. Bettman needs to die still.

I called and told my dad to do this. Hopefully it works for him.

really, if they generalize to 'lower body injury' during the playoffs, i think it's just as appropriate with STDs

Canes just extended Cam Ward - 37.8mil over 6 years. Even though he's one of the best in the league, the cost seems a little steep.

steep, he was just awful vs pens in conference finals. Even osgood was better.

Ward's deal is pretty much market value for the term. Backstrom at 6, Lundquvist at 6.8 ish. He's also pretty much Mr. Game 7, so that counts for a bit.

VANCOUVER AND CALGARY TOMORROW ! I'm so excited

Along with you?

Cam ward posted a 4.75 GAA against pens in conference finals last playoffs. Worst of all goaltenders. But maybe you think that is amazing.

Gotta take into account how the canes defense was non-existant and left him out to dry in the series. He was great in the first 2 series though.
