How elastic is the demand for sports on TV is the real question. If people have to pay $500 a year to stream NHL would they vs having other cable subscribers subsidize sports

Well. I am sure I am not the only one here who pays ~$1,000 a year for a cable package. Then of course have to buy Disney+ for the kids and wifey, netflix because it's necessary, and have prime video because i like quick delivery. The only thing I really use the cable package for is sports, and my wife only uses it to tape endless amounts of garbage TLC programming.
If I could dump the cable and pay $500 a year for guaranteed access to all Flames games and a handful of other divisional games+Playoffs, then supplement with an additional CBSgo or Crave or whatever BS I would be all over it.
