GDT: GAME 09 - Monday, October 28th, 2024 - Winnipeg Jets vs. Toronto Maple Leafs - 6:30pm CDT - Amazon Prime - CJOB/Power 97

Stupid prime games.
Don’t have any interest in watching this one.
Four different platforms needed to watch one team is preposterous in my opinion.

Thanks for the GDT @macmaroon !

Amazon is making it hard for people with poor internet watch the game!

They're not my favorite Amazon!

Nope I disagree, it is there fault. Corporate greed, that is all what the Leafs ultimately are.

I mean, it's business. I don't really blame broadcasters to focus on what is going to bring the biggest audience, it's kind of what they've always done. The only thing I wish they'd do better is focus on regional content but that is expensive to produce and there isn't the ROI anymore with the way new media has eroded audiences.

I'd rather have a good, exciting team to cheer for that doesn't get a lot of national attention than have a team with all the attention that just sucks balls.

At least TSN has invested in really good local broadcasts of Jets games. We have a great crew, getting Dan as a replacement for Dennis was a real coup, and I even don't mind SHUT UP SAWYER as at least he's a total Jets homer, and not some annoying hater like Galley.

Don't lose to the Leafs and help them get turned around,,,mmmkaybye

I don't blame broadcasters either for focusing on bigger markets but when it comes to the regional broadcasts on TSN for the Leafs and even the Sens and Habs compared to Winnipeg, it's night and day. Leafs get the full in-studio panel etc

Absolutely hate this whole Amazon prime thing.

Hopefully the Jets can keep it going. The Leafs have some talent up front so you have to always be aware.

 

[DRW204]

these are always fun games at the barn, hoping the leaves fans leave in tears.

This will just be a test run before Amazon takes over SN’s contract for the NHL.

Agreed and i won't be sad to see cable companies, TSN and SN left by the way side.

Exactly. My dream is live games in 4K, a library of past games, individual on-demand segments on specific teams so I don’t have to sit through 15min of Leafs talk to get to the 3min Jets review, no blackouts so I can watch the Jets out-of-province.

I'd love to see this happen - and Amazon has the means to actually do this if they wanted to.
Wouldn't it be nice to have all the games from one source? Amazon is probably smart enough to realize this as well

Exactly, I haven't paid any cable company in three years and don't miss it a bit, I do have SN but would love to replace them. I have Amazon and plan on watching it tonight, I have seen one other game (not Jets) on Amazon and it was done well.

 

[AtomicJets]

Sportsnet is horrible, I'll take Amazon Prime over that any day

 

[Flyby]

That’s what I was going to say.
Prime couldn’t possibly be any worse than Sportsnet!!!

 

[SLAYER]

Piracy is largely a service issue - if we were able to get all of the games with one easy to access service, most people would pay.

One of the complaints is that my IPTV service streaming is way higher quality than the legit TSN or SN streams from their websites. The service and quality is awful.
