News Article: Colorado Avalanche Media Coverage Part VI

Enjoy!

We always love to head south in February. It makes the winters so much easier if you can break them up. The coldest two months up here are January and Febraury. So being able to bail on a week or two of that and then come back knowing you are only a month or so away from breakup just makes life more enjoyable.

Yeah it's the same here lol, gracias.

Damnit, this means that its less likely that KTVD will get more games next year. I've had so many issues streaming games this year that I was hoping they'd pick up more of the games next year.

This is literally what Comcast offered them 5.5 years ago. Hilarious.

Glad we went through all of this. Just as the Avs are coming out of being one of the most dominant teams of the past 5 years we now get to see them on TV again.

So much missed opportunities to grow a generation of fans. A **** up of epic proportions by KSE.

I can confirm both Altitude and Altitude 2 are on Xfinity now.

Just dumb.

I wonder if they'll keep Altitude+ going forward

I'm sure they will. Streaming is here to stay, whether we like it or not.

The art of the deal

 

[Pokecheque]

If anything this standoff severely delayed their efforts to secure their lucrative real estate deal to build a new arena and practice facility. I imagine that's why they finally blinked.

Which kittens you got?? I've got a nice, furry purring one if you need...

 

[Bonzai12]

Just signed up for ALT - it’s $10 a month until April and then it doubles

Did you have to buy/add the package??

 

[S E P H]

Sucks that we waited this long, just to listen to Moser and Ryker whine about missed pens and over the top sexual innuendo.

I already had it for RedZone and Big Ten Network. Not happy that it's going up $6 in 2 months. I have been considering switching to YouTubeTV for the last year, and I might just do it now. My kids don't even watch TV. Everything is Netflix, Disney, or via Apps. My wife barely watches TV. So, we are paying Xfinity and the App costs already, and YTTV is about 1/3 of the cost vs Xfinity. I was keeping Xfinity for live sports, but YouTube has gotten better, they have the quad box for watching multiple games simultaneously, and I can get Redzone with them. Plus, many leagues are starting to go to Apps, like Amazon (which I also have), Netflix (NFL, WWE, etc.), Peacock (NFL, College games, etc.) The only thing I wouldn't be able to get would be NHLN and Altitude. However, I could get Altitude+ or maybe even convince my inlaws to let me borrow their online login for their cable in Nebraska to watch the Avs.
