NHL Center Ice 2011-12 Question - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

Not sure where to post, but a quick question: Anyone know if there'll be a free preview of NHL Center Ice on Bell this time around? (Unrelated question for a separate thread: there was no free preview of NFL Sunday Ticket in the first week of the season.)

There are usually 2 or 3 free preview periods throughout the season. The first one is at the beginning of the season, the next is just before they do the half-season price reduction... and there may be one other, not sure.

If there is no free-preview I would be shocked. Just an FYI that many pre-season games are shown on CI. Last nights Leafs vs Sens game was, and I expect other regionally broadcasted games will be as well.

Person I talked to last nite indicated free preview until a date in Oct which I've forgotten. Went to 188 just to check out the cost but when I clicked on Centre ice it automatically got ordered. When I called I was more interested in making sure they cancelled the order that I didn't get what he said were the dates. I plan to wait until they drop the price (normally) after the season is underway. No price advantage in being an early bird.

Lets hope that they don't start the free preview until the regular season starts. Who really cares about the pre-season anyway.

Anyone know if the NHL Gamecenter Live will be included with CenterIce this season? In the past Bell has provided a code that enabled us to get the NHL Gamecenter Live for free... hoping that is still the case? Just asking here in case someone has already checked into this...

Thanks

Bell sent a letter a couple of weeks ago to previous Center Ice subscribers in which it states Gamecenter Live will be included again. Someone posted that the codes are now available on the Bell website.
