From the part I've seen, it's been a great game, with an equally great broadcast. I only wish I was watching it at home instead of on a tiny phone screen.

Prime is gonna change the game in sports broadcasting for good if they keep their shows at this level. This is terrific stuff. Sometimes you just need to perfect the basics.

Just a huge shoutout to Cheese! I had no idea that Amazon carries Flames’ games broadcasts until today. And I really love the quality: both streaming and commentators’ coverage.

I'm really enjoying this broadcast, but no way in H-E-double hockey sticks am I going to let Amazon know that I'm willing to pay extra for it above my Prime membership. If they think they can stream it for a premium charge, they will.

No question, though, SN can't touch this quality, it's a totally different experience.

The production is much better than Sportsnet. The crowd roars when the Flames score and the audio is properly synced. Seems like just simple little things, but Sportsnet can’t seem to do either and it’s been years.

Oh, and no annoying panel talking about the Oilers.

I think SN deliberately turns the crowd noise down in Flames broadcasts to make Oilers and Leafs fans sound louder by comparison.

It really comes down to the not obsessing about the Oilers for me. It’s too much, it’s too annoying. This is nice.

If the Flames were losing would we all hate the Prime broadcast?

Refreshing to not be bombarded with Oilers content during intermission.

Great production, kudos to prime. I am watching on the telus app, and only thing I wish you could do is pause and rewind.

So is the broadcast actually Amazon or is it just ESPN streamed over Prime with some re-coloured box score?

If Amazon got rid of the superimposed board ads, it would be a home run IMO.
