High Def pic looks great, but it really feels like I'm in the gym. :D
Can hear the crowd, the sounds from gameplay, the announcer, etc., but no commentator audio. While it's surely a mistake on CBS' part, it's not such a bad thing. :D

I just noticed that, too. I can switch to the audio from adelphia if I want the commentary, but I'm kind of enjoying not having it. Now if they would just pipe through the arena anouncer, so I get that full "in the stadium" feel.
And cheerleaders. I wouldn't mind having cheerleaders in the room, but now I'm just getting greedy.

Was the picture in the 4:3 format elsewhere? I turned it on and I had the two black bars running down the sides. I thought HD was supposed to be broadcast in 16:9 format.
The picture was outstanding.

It was only 4:3 with graphics on the screen. Gameplay was 16:9, at least on my TV.
and I thought the arena announcer was coming through.
btw, I didn't watch the whole game, did the commentator ever come on?

Great picture! Thank you CBS! We want more. Commentary audio didn't come on for a while, but like the other person said, that was not necessarily a bad thing. Those that have HDNET get to enjoy "Sights and sounds" when they broadcast hockey games. Start of third period is w/o commentary for 8 minutes.
