Louisville, KY | I do not have it in Louisville, KY either. I asked this question on my Insight forum and did not get an answer. Insight was bought out by Time Warner Cable 18 months ago. |

Dallas has some hockey fans we have the Dallas stars, 2 CHL teams are based in the North Texas area, also local high schools have hockey teams, as well but we don't have college hockey teams here. So yeah Texas has a market for Hockey but it is not at the top we are at the bottom of the NHL team popularity but there is hockey fans here.
My high schools team was called the Arlington Wild named after the Minnesota Wild but the team was all city and not just my high school. |

kudos:7 | The Dallas Stars can not sell out their arena. Its not a hockey town.
When the company moves to a common line up I am sure that will help.

No. Insight did not have it. We got NBA network and MLB network when TWC took over last spring. |

| We have the NHL Network, CBC-Hockey Night in Canada (Toronto Maple Leafs), MSG-Buffalo Sabres games and MSGPlus for Ranger and Islander games (when they forget to flip the switch). Needless to say, Buffalo is a hockey hotbed but unfortunately we have an under achieving team. TWC even carries Rochester Americans AHL games on the local TWC sports channel. |
