I believe this is the case this weekend because the Flames were not expected still be playing, but previously it's been ABC. However, I read something yesterday that indicated that game 7 if necessary would be an 8:00 start on May 22. As well, there would be Saturday night games for the final.yychobbyist said:There were a lot of pissed off people here about the afternoon games scheduled for this series but I guess it turns out that ABC is not all to blame for this. From what I understand there are building commitments in both San Jose and Calgary that require many of the games to be played in the afternoon.
