Talk:MSG Sportsnet

message: Merge  There are no separate pages for individual Fox Sports Net or even Comcast Sports Net articles.  Info on national FSN programming is on the main FSN page, and the local aspects are on the MSG Network page. Milchama 18:59, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I think the reason why Long Island Lizards game on 1:00 PM, June 16, 2007 will air on FSN New York is that because there is a conflict with the New York Mets, which is the main home of SNY. Also, this game is set to air live, but some Lizards game on television are under tape delay. However, I think the reason why Lizard's game will air live is because Lizards is the home team of this game and there is also a conflict with the Mets. This game could have aired on MSG, the main RSN of MSG Media (because there are no local sports conflicts), but, it is Lizards's choice. Takuma IshizekiTakuma Ishizeki 23:00, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  About Long Island Lizards on FSN New York 

message: Right now, from what I got (channel listings for FSN New York areas), only cablevision has FSN New York HD. Others do not carry such channel, but cable companies like Time Warner Cable and Comcast may carry games on FSN New York in high definition in the HD Sports or HD Specials channel (example: FSN New York HD game on MSG HD or YES HD when current MSG or YES Network program is not HD-Available for TWC of NY and NJ (MSG HD and YES HD for TWC of NY and NJ lineup also said HD Specials in the same channel)) However, I am not sure, because I live in Lynbrook, New York, which the main cable company here is Cablevision. If anyone has known that your cable provider actually has FSN New York HD (other than Cablevision), let me know, through the message. Takuma IshizekiTakuma Ishizeki 21:47, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Who has FSN New York HD? 

message: When I checked the Rangers Telecast Schedule from MSG today, I found out that no Rangers games will be blacked out on FSN New York and MSG for Zone 5, which is Central Connecticut and Northeast Pennsylvania. However, there is an overflow on some games on the Zone 5. I am not sure if that affects Zone 6 (Eastern Connecticut), but I have edited anyway. Islanders and Devils games are still up to 50 games will be shown on Zone 5 (and 6). So, my question is, DID NHL MADE A NEW RULE THAT MAKES ALL RANGERS GAMES AVAILABLE IN CONNECTICUT? If I am incorrect, please undo my change. Takuma Ishizeki 20:12, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is there a new NHL rule that makes all Rangers games available in the State of Connecticut??? 

message: MSG Media has announced that FSN New York will be rebranded as MSG+ on March 10, 2008 and affiliation with Fox Sports Net will be ended. This page should be merged with MSG Network on that day because of the end of affiliation with Fox Sports Net and the new content will be exactly the same with MSG. I do not recommend the name MSG Plus as the article name because it will be part of the alternate channel of MSG (channel will still be full time). Please DO NOT merge this page until March 10, 2008.

thread_title:  2nd Proposed Merger: Merge FSN New York with MSG Network 

message: MSG+2 (in my area it is the tv guide channel) is not high definition. It is the overflow channel when there are too many sporting events on in a night. The Devils play on this channel often. This channel is not High Definition!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.165.221.98 (talk) 19:37, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, but you forgot to mention the New York Islanders; they play on this channel too. -- ISLANDERS27 07:51, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The article does explicitly state that MSG2 and MSG+2 is not available in High Def - what's your concern as it relates to this article? The section header, as you wrote it (minus the "lie" part), was once an advertising tagline used by Cablevision, but since discontinued for the very reason you state.-Sme3 (talk) 13:46, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: So why is this section here anyway? -- ISLANDERS27 04:58, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: (fixed indent which I admit I screwed up!).  You mean the section of the talk page?  Probably because someone wanted a forum to voice his displeasure at MSG+2. -Sme3 (talk) 16:48, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

message: The broadcast zones are clearly outdated (and probably already were when they were added to the article). I find no evidence that they still have nine of them, I'm thinking that dates back to when MSG and FSNY still had baseball. Looking at tv listing they seem to have kept 4 of them. The following are my best guess of what they are:
Zone 1                                       	New York Metro                                                                                                       	All games from Knicks, Devils, Rangers, Islanders
Zone 2                                       	Upstate New York (excluding Buffalo/Rochester), most of Pennsylvania (except NE which is zone 1 & NW which is zone 3)	All Knicks and Sabres games. Most Devils, Rangers, Islanders games
Zone 3 (MSG feed branded MSG Western New York	Western NY (Buffalo, Rochester)                                                                                      	All Knicks and Sabres games. Select games from Devils, Rangers, Islanders.
Zone 5                                       	parts of Connecticut                                                                                                 	?
Notice that I skipped zone 4 since it no longer seems to exist. Anyone know what the current restrictions are on NBA and NHL blackouts? it seems they may have relaxed the rules. I'm removing the section because it clearly is not correct (and may never have been).--Rusf10 (talk) 05:02, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
