That whole Rogers rules page is so needlessly long and confusing. Screw them.

That still scares me. I think I'm going to go with the US subscription, and unblock-us to guarantee I can watch what I want.
Ya I'm thinking this will definitely be the way to go.

Since I have a Rogers phone I get Game Centre for free (which is kinda amazing). We will see what this means though for access... though being in Toronto and being a Flames fan usually means I am good.
But I should think that if a Calgary resident was travelling and accessing Game Centre from the US, it would allow me them to watch their game since it wouldn't be available locally... ...

The stupid thing with this Rogers agreement is that it makes no exceptions for people travelling into Canada who have an international subscription. As soon as I try to watch a game on my phone or tablet, when I am visiting Canada for work, the app goes straight to the Rogers log in, bypassing the normal log in. Now of course I don't have a Rogers log in, making it impossible for me to use my subscription even though i have paid for it and just visiting.

Edit: i suppose i could get a vpn on my phone???

There is a minuscule link on the Rogers sign in page (used to be next to the login button) that says NHL.com users sign in here and it takes you to a separate login page. I have it bookmarked on my computer so I can't lose it!

What happened to the class action settlement that was supposed to let us buy single team center ice and gamecenter at a reduced price? My directv center ice auto renewed at the same rate as last year.

Can you share the link? I don't see that on the page.

I can't find the tiny link anymore on their sign in page.

Here is the link I use:

Anyone have any idea on rebilling date for a US/NHL.com based account?

I seem to be able to login to my account still and view the pre-season stuff... but I don't seem to have access to any account/billing info.

Time to fire up a VPN perhaps?

Strange. I don't think I have a share everything plan or an ignite plan, but rogers tells me I get the year for free. Ok then. I guess that money saved can now go to the VPN as I don't have cable.

It keeps telling me: NHL Gamecenter Live is not yet available for purchase. Please check back soon.

(I'm not logging in through the Rogers portal)

Any non-Rogers folks able to purchase already? I see a few Europe CPers have been able to purchase. What about Canada / US CPers? Are you able to purchase?

Will a Rogers sign in work from a US IP?

Did you get an email from them ? I got an email and in it there was a link that sent you to the single team sign up. I think I got the email sometime late last week

I got emails from both game center and Directv about center ice in June/July but nothing since. Who was your email from?

Still unavailable for me in the US.

Was hoping for an early bird special but looks like that won't happen..

Seems to be available now. I have subscribed to unblock-us, and then I went to the NHL site to sign up. Looks like 114.99 USD for the year.

I bought Rogers GameCentre Live, and it's working fine for me (Calgary based).
