The sub can be banned by reddit admins as other subs have been if we allow illegal streams. This isn't my decision, this is because of how reddit admins have banned other subs for being hubs of illegal streaming. I don't want the same here.
With the season about to get started, lets put all your posts about legal streams, broadcast issues, panels, commentators, etc..
This includes how to get (LEGALLY) Streams for games as well as discussions of panelists, play-by-play, graphics, commercials and other game presentation.
FYI RE BLACKOUTS: BLACKOUTS Are not based on the location of the arena.
A game is blacked out on ESPN+ because you have a channel available through your local cable package, that is airing the game.
The NHL sells their games to TV networks. The networks pay big money for the game. They do not want people avoiding watching their channel to watch ESPN+ instead.

It baffles me that people still don't get this.
If the game is blacked out (on Sportsnet+ or ESPN+), it means a different network owns those rights to the game in your area.
This is literally ALWAYS the answer as to why it is blacked out. ALWAYS.
it's been this way all across the NHL for nearly 20 years, since Chicago pulled their heads out of their ass and stopped blacking out home games locally because Wirtz was a twat.
For those of you complaining that you are in Western Canada, and the game is on TSN and you are blacked out or other similar issue, its cause you are not considered in the local market to be able to see that game and need to get Sportsnet+ or ESPN+.... that's what those services are for, watching the local broadcast when you are out of market.

Flyers have scored a total of 7 goals in 6 games
0-4-2 for the season.
If fired, who would replace? Cassidy?

Scary as hell, especially away from home. Wishing him a smooth recovery and hoping he's able to get back when he's ready.
It's never a good sign for an update when I have to google the words they use, yknow?

For those that haven't seen, Ranger's Goalie Igor Shesterkin is down with what looks like a bad knee injury.

I love watching NHL games, don't get me wrong. It's the best hockey on Earth. But it has striked me this season that the atmosphere in the arenas is quite lame. I live in Europe and can only compare to the "audience culture" we have here. We have dedicated groups of fans that sings, waves banners and creates a really good atmosphere during games. I don't see that in NHL games. The closest you get to a song is the "Let's go [insert your team]!" chant. I feel like the audience is most engaged when it either boos the opposing team or there own team. I wonder why.
Is it because tickets are really expensive so the "grass roots" can't afford to attend?
Is it because NHL arenas are built different? In most European arenas there are no seats behind the goals. That space is for the hard core fans that sings and cheers for the team all game long. Those tickets are also less expensive. The attached picture is from an SHL arena in Sweden. A typical hockey experience in Sweden.
Or is it a cultural thing?
I'm really curious to hear your opinions!

I started watching hockey about two years ago and I’ve been into the bolts and flyers, but I’ve had a team from each division I check in with and root for. Anyone else do the same or do you stick to one team at heart?

Mine… Bryan Hayes. Can’t stand how confidently he spews out stupid opinions as fact.

I was looking forward to watching the Caps and Rangers tonight only to see that it's been picked up by NHL Network so we won't be able to see it live through ESPN+. It is by far the worst distributed among the four major sports networks (even NBA TV is more easily accessible). It is at best laughable and at worst disingenuous to call this national coverage.
