How are you watching the NHL this season?

I am accessing the NHL tv streaming site geoblocked from a country who has limited interest in hockey (hence no fighting amongst SN, ESPN, etc.). However I have been finding free streaming to be as reliable and, sometimes, better quality.

Trying to access all games has been a nightmare to do through official companies. How’s your experience been?

korny,

Nhlbite.com is a great streaming site for all games.

GrindingGears,

I’m not. I’ll just wait for the playoffs, as the regular season is next to pointless, and the rules all change in the playoffs. So it’s pretty much meaningless, other than making the playoffs. If I was an NHL GM, especially a Canadian one, that would be my prime focus. Just do well enough to make it, and find a way to stash a whole bunch of studs on the IR, until just before the playoffs. And be way over cap.

does this include the MSG channel?

ButtDrugs,

Sportsurge dot net - indexer for pretty much any live sporting event. Then I use the webvideocaster app to cast it to a roku tv.

can,

Plus one for the web video cast app. One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Very responsive dev.

bushparty,

I’ve been using http[://]onhockey[.]tv which is pretty okay with an add blocker and VPN. I’m definitely open to other options but another subscription for IPTV is not ideal imo. One benefit to onhockey is that they have a ton of games from many leagues though I haven’t tested them all.

decta,

I went full on IPTV after 8 years of Gamecenter.

NHL Gamecenter had so many games restricted that were at a reasonable time cause they were on some other station that you had to pay for again.

Also with their ban of Pridetape now I see no reason to support this operation with my money. It is a disgrace!

Do you have an IPTV recommendation?

I had not heard about the Pridetape restriction. Very disappointing. :(

decta,

cannot send PMs on Lemmy :/

Nyarlathotep,

It looks like I can send a PM, but if I try composing one to you it warns that it will not be secure. I guess this admin could read it, but it won’t be public.

Sent you a message

AbeFroman,

I used to use an app called LazyMan they had a Reddit community but I believe it is now finished it was awesome whether there is another app now I don’t know. Ur best bet is with an IPTV subscription.

ByteWizard,

Also with their ban of Pridetape now I see no reason to support this operation with my money.

Funny, that was what got me interested in watching the NFL this season. Nothing against pride tape but professional sports should NOT be about politics, from either side. That’s what I’m supporting.

gianni,

Being openly gay is not a political statement.

ByteWizard,

What part of being “openly gay” requires the display of gay pride colors? Colors that are very closely tied to the political movement?

"Flags are political symbols, borrowed from the vocabulary of nationalism, with similar overtones of citizenship, belonging, borders. They represent what the historian Benedict Anderson called “imagined communities”—self-constituted entities, united less by shared experiences than by shared beliefs in shared experiences. " www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/…/619273/

Even the designer of the flag considers it a political symbol.
"According to Gilbert Baker, the designer who, in 1978, first used a rainbow as a symbol for LGBT causes, “For the past almost 40 years, the rainbow flag has stood as a politically powerful, meaningful, and also aesthetically effective symbol.” letallplay.org/…/yes-fifa-lgbt-rainbow-is-politic…

slushiedrinker,

Holy fuck. From now on all my clothing is going to be rainbow fucking colors every day of my life until I die. What a homophobe.

decta,

It is not politics if you are inclusive. This is a basic right. Also, the NHL has had the “you can play” program for years but in the end a little pushback means it was just PR crap.

ByteWizard,

Whatever you think the colors mean, they are a political symbol to others. Displaying political symbols when being paid as part of your job is commonly disallowed and is not limited to rainbow flags.

decta,

So I guess then they should also cancel military jerseys, cancer awareness events, singing anthems,… right?

ByteWizard,

Sure. Why do you think I would have a problem with that?

emogu,

Seriously. I don’t know how we got to a point where treating people with dignity is a divisive political issue. Backwards bizzarro world. Inclusivity shouldn’t be a political decision and publicly praising the military will always be political by definition.

The folks who say they dont support pride tape or kneeling during the anthem solely because it’s political are usually making bad faith arguments to mask their own bigotry. Nobody cared that players were kneeling until they asked why. They’re also the type to have no problem with military flyovers or putting a blue line on the flag, which, by flag code definition, is desecration. The “politics” argument is blatantly hypocritical.
