No. I have trouble watching on my PC and then switching over to my Shield or other device, not even simultaneously watching but closing one feed then starting up the other. Same with TSN, both seem to check if you are online with your account already and stop the stream if it looks like you are trying to watch twice on the same account. You have to use Chromecast to move the feed to another device or it will fail, usually after playing for a short time.

Having the technical savvy of cold poutine, both seem to use a database of open connections that can be 15-20 minutes out of date to determine if you have a stream running, rather than a more advanced method that checks if you are *currently* online and data is flowing to that endpoint.
