So this is a Prime Video exclusive? That won't work with my PVR. Grrr.

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

No Louie "No-goal" Debrusk 2 games in a row. That's alright by me.

 

[rboomercat90]

Can anybody remember the last Oiler game that wasn’t available on regular tv? I can’t. Probably have to go back to the days of the $8 pay-per-views and I can’t remember off the top of my head exactly when that was.

Pretty sure their last PPV season was 2009-10, just before Sportsnet+ got introduced.

Yeah, I thought it was even longer ago than that. Still, that’s 15 years ago. I can’t even imagine listening to a radio broadcast anymore. I might be missing my first Oilers game in years tonight.

Jersey playing with fire starting Markstrom.

Anyone know if Prime archives games?

 

[GMofOilers]

A win tonight puts us 7-2-1 in last 10

Do it

Welcome to the beginning of the end of SN dominance. However one will have to now subscribe to 27 different streaming services, lose the ability to PVR games, if your internet is slow not even be able to watch properly, etc etc.

The game should be on the US feed tonight if you have Bell Center Ice. I might watch that instead as I don’t have Prime in my home theater (1st world problem I know…).

I guess we better be careful what we wish for sometimes.

 

[tardigrade81]

I have prime but these prime games are stupid. Forces people to get prime and other streaming crap.

If the Oilers lose, I’m returning the game to Amazon expecting a full refund and free return shipping.

Games on Prime are a lot better for us in the States than games on NHL Network which nobody has unless you're still on cable.

 

[McHelpus]

I personally just see this as another obstacle for NHL fans. Not sure how you are suppose to get new viewers when you do this crap.

 

[oXo Cube]

Rogers hasn't done a good job with their NHL contract, but I dread the day it ends.

The league is going to chop the games up into 6 different broadcasters that we'll all need separate subscriptions for.

 

[FlameChampion]

I guess the good news with playing Skinner yesterday is that I think Pickards mobility might be more required for the Devils.

Not sure what to expect in this one but it generally annoys me when the home ice team is b2b against a well rested team. Not much of an advantage. Calgary/Edmonton game should of been on Saturday.

Hopefully the boys find a way tonight.

I said in the past, but I would love the Oilers to just create their own broadcast in 4K that you pay a yearly subscription, through a cable service for stability (Like hey...an "Oilers" channel).

Also, not sure how you have your theater set up, but I'm constantly surprised how many "sources" have smart apps. I just found out my Shaw box has apps including Plex (which I usually do through my Apple TV Box) and wouldn't be surprised if the Shaw Box has Amazon Prime on it as well.

I tried watching one of their other Monday night games after it was over and I wasn't able to - it just said "the event is over" or something like that.

It definitely has that option “rewatch from the beginning” or something that pops up, but whether it works I guess is another question.

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Time to cut the cord old folks.

 

[alphahelix]

Is Kovacevic really better than their other blue chip D prospect at this point?

 

[GMofOilers]

People do not like change, what’s the old saying, “Can’t teach a old dog new tricks”

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Half this thread will be complaining about this game being on Amazon and I am here for it.

Not looking forward to the "À la carte" future we seem to be facing where regular season games are going to be spread out over multiple providers.

As for the game, Devils are good and hopefully Draisaitl finds a way to beat them.
