    Hi All-

    Anyone know of any pub that shows NHL hockey? The Wool Shed used to, but I just checked their online schedule, and they don't have it listed.

    Thanks!

    East Europeans are heavy into their hockey. That Czech bar shows internationals, alot of players from there play in the US so Id say its a good bet for NHL (dont actually watch it myself and Ive never been to the place, tbh i dont even know where it is, Parnell Street area I think).

    Maybe the Dublin board might be of some help.

    "the living room "on cathal brugha st gets a big czech/slovak crowd and I think they show a lot of hockey, whether they show NHL or not is something I can't help with but it's a starting point for you

    If you've just moved here from the US then you will soon learn that although America is one of most admired and copied societies in the world--everybody else enthusiastically embraces your movies, music, fashion, fast food (dare I say it), business methods, freedom of speech etc--but the only two aspects that the rest of the world largely chooses to ignore are your gun laws and your sport.

    They remain quintessentially and exotically American.

    The average European could name ten famous baseball players with the same ease that the average American could name ten famous Belgians.

    Good luck, though. In these days of satellite and digital TV, you might just find somewhere that caters for a minority audience.

    Most pubs that show sport will have the Setanta package on SKY, so they'll have NASN. In addition, Setanta Sports Ireland shows eight hours of NASN between midnight and 8am every day. Most pubs with more than one set will be happy to switch channel if there's any interest in alternative programming.
