Random factoid:
Jeff Friesen scored an empty-net goal to ice the Ducks' 3-0 victory. Friesen is emerging as a "Mr. Game 7." He has played in five Game Sevens in his NHL career -- his team has won all five of those games and he has scored five goals in those winner-take-all games.
OLN bought the rights to air "classic" NHL games, along with Stanley Cup filler material (such as the show on Jordan Tootoo), to use as placeholders when scheduled games are not needed.
I'm not sure, but I think OLN has some amount of localization... i.e. they can broadcast different games to different markets.
