Spiertsnet?

Actually, I kind of like it. I think maybe I'll call it Spiertsnet from now on. It suits their production values and the accuracy of their reporting.

Spiertsnet is best strieming application! Works great, just put the resolution in H! With apologies to Toonage, who beat me to the joke.

NFL on Prime Video Thursday and playoff games on Peacock, MLB on AppleTV Fridays. NHL not breaking ground here, just trying to grab a share.

You are correct.



"National Monday night games during the regular season will be exclusive to Amazon Prime subscribers.


The deal could be a bit of a boost for TVA Sports, whose rights aren’t covered in the agreement. If the network airs Canadian NHL games on Monday nights, it could see some tuning from anglophone NHL fans who don’t want to subscribe to Amazon."

John Forslund could be the play by play commentator for the Amazon games.

Does anybody know if a Basic Amazon Prime subscription will get you Monday night NHL Flame games or will that be something extra you have to add ? ... Thanks.

From reading this announcement, it sounds like it'll be included in basic prime.

Quote:
“With Prime Monday Night Hockey, we’re offering our customers even more from their Prime membership,” said Magda Grace, head of Prime Video, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
The only mention of addons is for other services, like sportsnet.

Yup NFL led the way here and soon enough all leagues will follow or are following.

NFL is already kind of doing it by splitting out their Thursday, Sunday Night, Monday Night, and splitting the sunday timeslots by TV partner.

MLB has the Apple TV friday deal and some different national partners already.

NBA was separating out their major national deals too.

My guess is on the next rights deal you see the NHL sell Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night national packages separately.

And I think we start to see Apple, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and the other streaming companies start to take much bigger pieces of these sports content deals in the next rights cycle.

They better figure out regional restrictions before they start siphoning off exclusive game rights to guys like Apple and Amazon. Hard enough to watch games as it is.

It's the right way to do things, instead of having 1 or 2 carriers. You get more content, its diverse, and games don't overlap into each other or toggling through 50 useless channels.

Hopefully it leads to stuff that like that HBO special for the Winter Festival games.

I think Netflix bought WWE Monday Night Raw.

Best of all, if you want to watch all the games of your favourite team, you have to subscribe to half a dozen different services! Who wouldn't want that, amirite?

I know when I want to watch a game I definitely want to have to first look up which service it’s on, and keep track of if I can PVR it, have to stream it live, have to watch it on demand the next day, or have to have someone else start the video for me because the score was been put in the title. If I’m travelling it adds that extra danger buzz I need.
