NHL, you suck!

I'm glad they are putting the Stanley Cup finals on NBCSN so that some folks without cable/dish can watch the story of the what the OJ jury didn't hear....

No wonder they can't add fans.


Gary Bettman is satan!! Jim Rome was correct on that one.

It's mind blowing to me. Hockey is one of the best damn sports to watch. Complete BS that the Stanley Cup games can't even make the big networks.

Yet they will play one of the Toronto Blue Jay's or Kansas City Royals meaningless 162 mid season games during prime time. Besides NCAA/NFL, the NHL is the most entertaining sport in this country. Playoffs/Finals should always take precedence over meaningless mid season games regardless of which sport.

I've waited all spring to have something to contribute to the NHL threads.

Sorry they did that. Rangers are ahead 1-0, with 7:30 left in first period. LA has a minute left on their power play.

The playoffs were over when the Avs got beat out

 

[Zach]

My ESPN app is keeping me up to date, but it's not the same as watching.

 

[JohnCushman]

Come on down to my house, dude

 

[mdhunter]

I agree, I may be watching but not being on major tv is pathetic.

 

[mrmedora]

Unfortunately the NHL had no other options, literally. NBC was the only one willing to pay for the rights. $200 million/year for ten years I think. Remember when the NHL was on OLN a few years ago? That was brutal.

NBC usually is pretty good at streaming their big games online at nbcsports.com. I don't have any sort of TV service so I've gotten rather skilled at finding ways to watch sports.

1:11 left in the game. Rangers 2, Kings 1. Face off in the Ranger's end. LA pulls the goalie.

Rangers lucked out. Puck was sitting on the goal line, Lunqvist had no idea where it was, Stepan sees it and swats it away.

 

[Big Fin]

Rangers win.

Hockey is fun to watch, playoff even more so. Stanley Cup finals with the goalie pulled is about as exciting and professional spots gets.

 

[kansasdad]

That is the most hockey guys in one pile I have ever seen when that puck was slush blocked on the line. Wow

Even semi pro hockey live is intense. More so than any NBA or MLB game I've been to.

When I tried to watch onlline, they asked for your service provider, of course I don't have that otherwise I'd just watch on TV!!

I used to find alternate ways of watching, but then kinda felt like that was like pirating software.

I guess I should be happy I'm traveling for work this weekend and the hotel should have cable/dish....
