WHL post-season on Access


REGINA – Beginning next Saturday, Access Communications will show the second round of the Western Hockey League playoffs exclusively to its cable customers.

“We know our viewers across the province are passionate about hockey”, said Gursh Madhur, manager of community programming for the cable co-operative, in a release, “and we are excited to be offering this exclusive coverage.”

Round two of WHL playoff action features the series between Moose Jaw and Calgary.

This season’s WHL coverage is a result of a three-year agreement with the WHL and a partnership between Access Communications and Shaw Communications to bring WHL action exclusively to community television across Western Canada. Playoff games will be available live to all Access cable subscribers, including those in Regina, Yorkton, Melville, the Battlefords, Weyburn and Estevan and surrounding communities.
