Austin NBC Station Runs News Promo During Overtime, Misses Winning Goal
It's not exactly Heidi, but a major blunder by Austin, Tex. NBC affiliate KXAN deprived Lone Star State hockey fans the sudden-death goal that clinched Game 4 for the Blackhawks.

Update (12:05 a.m.): Here's KXAN's on-air apology, which aired immediately after—get this—a lengthy feature about the increasing interest in hockey among Texans.
