A simulcast of Sportsnet’s Hockey Central will begin the coverage at 10 a.m. ET, followed by a seven-hour trade deadline edition of NHL Tonight™ at 2 p.m. ET. Live analysis, interviews and updates from hosts Jamison Coyle and Jamie Hersch, and analysts Brian Boyle, E.J. Hradek, Mike Kelly and Dave Reid will be featured throughout the day.

Hradek and Mike Johnson will call an NHL Network Showcase game presented by SAP next weekend, with the Buffalo Sabres at the Detroit Red Wings Saturday, March 16 at 12:30 p.m. ET.
March’s NHL Network Showcase presented by SAP game telecasts includes the final showcase matchup of the season on Saturday, March 30 when the Red Wings take on the Florida Panthers. NHL Network play-by-play broadcaster E.J. Hradek said, “We’ve had a great slate of games all season and with the tight races heating up in the final weeks of the regular season, these four games will have a playoff feel.”
NHL Network’s game schedule through March is available here, and the NHL Network Showcase schedule is available below. Every NHL Network Showcase game, which is subject to change, will be available in the U.S. except in the home markets of the two teams featured.
