Around the NHL — Episode XLXVII

[GCK]

Kastelic has 5 points in his last 5 periods.

20% of his total in his Sens gear, in 145 games

Getting traded seems like the wake up he needed. Good for him.

It's part of the Prime subscription. they only do one night per week as of now so it's not really something they can charge extra for. Worth checking out though.

Cool. I'll see what it's about for the free month at least. Been waiting for someone to offer a solid 4K broadcast even if limited games.

Anyone watching Prime's coverage of the NHL tonight with Mtl vs Pitts?

Quality is soooo much better than anything you'll get through the Sportsnet or TSN apps. True 4K and amazing sound as well.

Really puts to shame the two main Canadian broadcasters as they have never provided anything better than 1080p-ish(often dips to 720p when heavy demand) streaming despite being these huge monopolies. We deserve better, especially considering how ultra expensive both services are.

Prime has a huge advantage in streaming as they have zero infrastructure provider costs. Everyone else needs to pay a markup to AWS to driver the services.

Good out-of-town scoreboard night.

Colorado is in trouble, they're still losing tonight 4-1 against the Islanders

Are you seriously making excuses for Bell and Rogers right now?

Are you seriously making excuses for Bell and Rogers right now?

Not even a little. They will be out of the broadcast market in 10-15 years. It will be Prime and Google.

Helps when you’re in an organization that supports and believes in you. He’s in a much better situation. Hope he can keep it going.
