With Don't Tell Me the Score now down, and TSN.ca videos not available to US viewers, besides Sportsnet and NHL.com's terrible site, what are the best sites to watch highlights the day of or after the game has aired?
 
I too would like to know. NHL.com is now utterly useless in this regard.

Preferably I'd like to watch condensed highlights of the entire game, start to finish. Not individual incidents like NHL.com now does.

I also hate "recaps" with some bozo presenter doing voice over. Game audio and announcers only.

Is there anywhere that fits the bill...?
 
I am curious as well. I'd like to watch highlights without knowing the score, so DTMTS was awesome for me. On the new NHL site I have to click past a huge spoiler to get to the highlights part, and it seems that the highlights video has changed from highlights to only goals as well. This makes it a less fun to follow the NHL in Europe.

TSN blocks its video's for anyone trying to watch from outside of Canada and ESPN has only very short clips. Anyone got a better site?

I actually just watched Flames-Canes highlights on sportsnet.ca and it worked fine... and was proper highlights. I'm from the UK but live in Japan... so if I can watch it... surely European based fans can too.
 
Youtube.

NHL has a pretty good channel, but if you want to see more than just the goals and possibly the shootout, there are a few other channels that show more of the game.

Just go to "Scores" on nhl.com and click on "Gamecenter" next to the game you want to see highlights from and there it is, highlights with game audio.

I only get the afforementioned "recap" with annoying voiceover, or individual 30 second videos for the goals only. This isn't what I'm after. Having to watch each goal individually is infuriatingly slow and frustrating.

The voiceover is just for a few sec and the recap with all goals is on top of the article.
 
Man, the loss of dtmts.com is devastating.

I haven't tried it in a couple of years, but there was an NHL app on Playstation 3 that easily allowed scores to be hidden and all the videos were full highlights, not just the goals.

I have to assume that the current app will probably be the crappy goals only version however. It's worth checking out though if you have a game console.
 
And here I thought I was the only one who hated NHL.com now. I thought it was bad before. Now it's just hideous. I watched a game "recap" the other night, and was like, what the **** did they do?

I can not believe it either. Who would just like to see the goals of a game? So pointless to use nhl.com right now. Hope somehow they feel inclined to add proper highlights, but I doubt it.

Might be me, but sportsnet.ca just shows similar goals only moments with a ****** voice-over.
 
Ridiculous how the NHL can't promote their own product any better than this. The NHL youtube channel clips all have the background music and only the goals. I want to see the big hits, fights, key moments, and the fun little things that make the game interesting. TSN and DTMTS used to be all I needed, but now they're both gone :shakehead

Correction. That was me being rather blind, thanks for the tip with sportsnet.
