Sometimes you can find the nhl and/or nba channels under channels listed as "skdl1" "skdl2" etc. or under channels listed as "tv9913" or similar #.Alot of games are on the fox sport channels and the other regional sport channels as well(nesn,altitude,sunshine,comcast,etc.).Some games are also on only the 110 satellite(echstar6.8) and not on 119(echostar7),so if you only have your dish pointing at one satellitte,obviously only games on that sattelite will be displayed.The only other reason could be if you were having bad weather in your area and reception was low,your scan would not have picked up the signal.Hope it helps you out for the next time you wish to see the games.Go HABS GO !!!!
