All Star game on NHL Network Canada?

[babyedwards]

I just went through the preview guide on tv and I couldnt find the all star game on nhl network but it says on echl.com they are showing it in Canada? Why would they put it on that one and not the one in USA? Or am I reading something wrong?

It was on the NHL Network last year but the tv guide said nhl hockey and it was the echl all star game.
