Missing Wednesday's game due to last minute training going on in Ottawa, Canada. Went to one sports bar / restaurant tonight to eat and they claim they can not get ESPN2 off their Directv Feed. Anybody have any experience with ESPN2 North of the border for Wednesday's game?

Thanks ???

If not, look for espn3.com

Speaking of espn3.com, it looks like it may be getting close down here. They finally list Time Warner as providing access so Brighthouse can't be far behind ........... hopefully.

Well Canada doesn't get ESPN (or DirectTV) but it's possible they have a "grey market" dish. In which case it's exactly the same as ESPN2 anywhere in the US. To get the dish they'd have registered with a US address -- so unless the region they are pretending to be in has some reason to black out the game or show something else you should be good to go.

Most Canadian cable companies have a version of Gameplan which is showing the game so if that place doesn't work out, anywhere with a PPV sports package should have the game (it's on in HD here too).

According to the Brighthouse website it's coming some time in November.  I just finished signing up for a My Services account so I'll be ready to roll when they go live.

It turns out that Bell Satellite has the game on a pay per view channel 391 here in Canada but hotel bar does not subscribe. Sports bar/restaraunts seem to only have star choice which does not offer it at all. Will either watch espn3.com online or the "future" link...what is that link for tonight?
