Sabres Broadcast

[Chris223]

Can someone help me figure out where the heck I’d find the Sabres on DirecTV?  Cannot find the game tomorrow listed on any of the MSG channels.  I just switched to DirecTV this summer so I’m still getting used to where everything is.

For me it was 635-1

Maybe, I'm a little drunk and high...

Well I hope currently on my guide that channel tomorrow at 7 just says “Upcoming: Title not available”.  Only channel showing the game is NESN which I know it wont be on.

The info usually was late to populate

Historically, for DTV Center Ice, the channel lineup normally isn't populated until game day... or just hours before the first game.

Thanks guys, I’ll keep checking to see if it just hasn’t populated yet for the MSG channels... was just getting nervous I wasn’t gonna be able to watch!  I don’t know about Center Ice since I wont be subscribing to that

I think the Sabres might be one of the last sports broadcasts that does not have a female broadcaster.

Same for me. The channel 635-1 part. Not the drunk and high part. Not yet. I’m teaching class until 7pm. Once I get home though.....those old chemically induced deep thoughts will begin....they call me Ogre for reason...

The game SHOULD end up on 635-1.  Not sure why it isn't showing yet.  It also isn't showing up above 769 (DTV's NHL CI).  

Probably just an oversight on DTV's part.  But considering each of the last 2 seasons they had glitches w/ CI on opening night, you might consider calling customer service now to remind them to load the info.

It updated, now its showing Bills All Access Live for tomorrow at 7 on 635-1.  Going to be very mad if I don’t get to see my Sabres!

When we moved I changed my TV to Charter Spectrum.  They wouldn't let me subscribe to Center Ice until the season began.  Then I called today and they said Center Ice is not available in my area. Why the hell not?!!!  Dooshes.

Luckily I only have one Charter cable box; all my other TVs are on Roku sticks.  So I just subscribed through NHL.tv and logged my Roku into it.  Boom.  NHL.

Thanks for nothing, Spectrum.

It could be one of the other MSG channels.

Also, check 769 and up.

Just a guess, but they don’t have the channel lineup loaded correctly. IIRC, this was common when I had DTV, and I used to get nervous when I didn’t see the Sabres broadcast on 635-1.

The game is listed as showing on 635-1 now.  It is also going to be on CI channel 770-1.

No data on why it took so long to show up in the channel lineup.
