I cut cable and used game center live last year. There were a lot of technical issues early in the season or the game center app would crash but it seems like the NHL eventually sorted stuff out and everything operated quite flawlessly after the first couple of weeks.

There is a couple minutes delay from the live broadcast and every once in a while the sound would fall out of sync with the picture which was easily resolved by simply reloading the stream.

I have tried streaming on Xbox360, my 6 year old laptop and apple TV. I found the apple TV was by far the best quality picture and stream. Xbox was choppy and would buffer a lot. The laptop was a fallback as whenever there we technical issues with the devices the computer would still somehow work. I have Shaw broadband 50. Not sure if it works as well with a slower connection...

I will signing up again this season.
