"The only lineup change for the Blue Jackets today vs PIT is on the blue line. Jack Johnson comes out, Jordan goes back into the lineup.

Merzlikins in net again."

Game is on NHL Network again for some unknown reason. Since it’s still partially owned by Comcast, the parent company of the Flyers, that’s why it is blacked out on ESPN+ and was not in the later years on Center Ice, also partially owned by Comcast, this is clearly a plot by the Flyers to humiliate the Penguins by having them presumably on cable but ends up just making people mad because NHL Network is the least available to stream and also doesn’t have a TV Anywhere logon anymore either. Jerks.
