They seem to have launched the site at midnight.

Is that NHL.com or the NHL's Google+ page?

I like the look of the main page, it's cleaner and they have the standings there as well which is nice.

I hope they are still making more changes though because the stats page is still the same and it's just terrible.

I think it looks nice, but I kind of wish they kept the black theme

No. I hate change.

However, I will probably like it in about 6 months. I am weird like that.

It's about as awesome as TSN.com's changes.

Neutral, are the teams going to be going to this new format as well?

Getting to the boxscore and game videos takes extra steps now it seems. I rarely understand these design choices. I want a quick site, I'm not there to admire the graphics.

I don't love it or hate it. I was never a huge fan of the old design, but this seems like an improvement overall.

One annoying thing is that the standings don't all fit nicely on one page any more. It requires more scrolling overall.

Everything is huge now. Boxscore forces you to scroll both for stats and videos separately.

All I care about is the facility of the site for watching live game video and full game replays. So far it seems like the video player is faster and smoother with better info on the video page itself. As long as that stays consistent, I'm happy.

Now at the top, I can't seem to do the 1-click to see boxscore or to watch the game through NHL Gamecenter Live. Maybe they haven't implemented those changes but if so, I don't like it. Seems like more clicks to get what you want.

It was 'Ultra-Crap' and now it is just 'Super-Crap'. So I suppose it is an improvement.

Can any CP poster confirm if they updated their Android or iOS app's? I believe that was also in the works too.

I myself am a Blackberry user and I use the Game Center app which gives me everything I need at the moment. I tried emailing them to see if they will update their Blackberry app but I got a super lazy corporate response about how much they appreciate my business and look forward to serving me on "all platforms" in the future.

Anybody here get an update for Android, iOS or Blackberry?

Thx

To sum it up:
Godawful work. Not sure if better or worse.

Nothing fits on one screen, everything is slow, too many clicks to get anywhere, way too much scrolling needed. Standings are unreadable because of way too much spacing.

For testing purposes I went and looked up Giordanos goal from the Nashville game. Video quality seems down, and the available video sizes are now either too big or too small.

I voted worse because I liked the black background over the new white one.
