NHL Center Ice package + NHLN-US

It's sad to say and hard to bnelieve that AT&T does not offer the NHL Center Ice package, nor the NHLN-US channel. One of the reasons we bought U-Verse was because we were lead to believe that it had the Center Ice package, which your chief competitor, Comcast, does offer. Barring that, which I can get online, it is still disgusting that AT&T does not have the NHLN-US channel either, which again, your competitior, Comcast, does have.

 

When will we see either or both of these offered to us again?

 

This is enough to drive me away from UVerse totally.

Yep, very sad and a puzzeling business decision.  I enjoy the price savings with AT&T Uverse -- internet, phone and TV -- but not offering the NHL Network or the NHL Center Ice package is a deal breaker for me.  Since it sounds like AT&T isn't going to budget on this soon, I'm pricing out alternative providers now, an no, it won't be their new company, Directv.

The NHL Network has been gone from the U-verse lineup since October, 2011, due to a contractual dispute between the National Hockey League and AT&T. No one knows when and if the NHL Network will return to the U-verse channel lineup. It could return with no warning like the Hallmark channels did. That is how AT&T does it's channel negotiations.

 

The rule, as I understand it, is if a provider wants to carry NHL Center Ice, they also need to carry the NHL Network.

 

Make your channel request here: http://uversechannels.att.com/
