What channel will Game Two of the Philadelphia Flyers and Washington Capitals first round series be on?

Game One of the Capitals versus Flyers first round series of the 2016 Stanley Cup playoffs saw the Caps dominate the Flyers 2-0 in a game that wasn’t as close as the score suggested. Washington recovered from a slow first period to allow just eight shots on goal the rest of the way. Their offense didn’t click as well as it should have, but they got a power play goal from defenseman John Carlson and a third period goal by center Jay Beagle.

The second game of the series should be a very emotional one. Philadelphia will be fighting for their playoff lives, knowing that they can’t leave the nation’s capital down two games. Meanwhile, the Capitals will try to take the series to Philadelphia up two games and put all the pressure on the Flyers. Philadelphia will face an uphill battle as they must beat Washington without shutdown line center Sean Couturier, who is out for the rest of the series.

It should be interesting to see how physical Game Two is because Game One was very physical and there were some questionable hits that were not called that both teams took offense to.

Game Two will be televised nationally on CNBC. CNBC is a channel that can be a bit hard to find, so here’s a channel locater that should help you find out what channel CNBC is in your area. The puck drop is estimated to be at around 7:00 PM EST.
