I'm not sure streaming is even a good option if this is important to you.

Is there actually a good quality stream to be found out there? I think for all the money you save, you end up with difficulty find the game, crappy quality, crappy sound, lag.

Cable is still the best way to watch the games. Get basic cable with a sports package and cancel it in the offseason. Maybe make up for the cost by going to a couple less games per season or something?

I just don't see any viable options out there that will result in a quality experience.
