I subscribed to NHL.tv for the year since I totally 100% live in France now, and I was really disappointed to see they don't let you watch back seasons anymore. I was going to rewatch some of 2018. :(
 
Anybody with any tips for improving site performance on an iPad. Feels like ad loading gremlins have been creating a ton of friction that has been degrading site functionality.

I use AdGuard on my phone because the site is unusable otherwise with all of the ads.

I don’t ever see ads here on my IOS devices……check safari settings to make sure the various add blocker things are enabled?
 
I know its early in the season and the world doesnt revolve around me .. but the Caps schedule so far has not been meshing with my life schedule.

Tonight and tomorrow night would be a great for a game.

Thanks - does the site offer a paid ad-free option? Stunningly, I would pay money to have a more seamless experience interacting with you lot.

It's $12/year for "sponsor", completely ad-free. Other benefits too. No brainer in my opinion.

The strike-through is used to show settings from vBulletin that have changed with the migration to this software. This is still a work in progress. Benefits: PM's: regular: limit=100; max rec=1, non-searchable sponsors: limit=300; max rec=3, searchable NEW: (now called Conversations)...

When I'm reading HF Boards on my iPad these days, I use the Brave browser (without any add-ons), which has eliminated all ads on the site (including the annoying pop-ups that demand you remove any adblockers). That said, IIRC, the creator of Brave turned out to be a real POS, so... yeah. I should probably find another option.

For me, the absurdly intrusive ads on this site make it unreadable on a phone/tablet while using Chrome.

Thanks for the tip. Made the change. It's a smoother ride for sure, though every once in a while cache takes me back to the pre-sponsorship, ad-clutter horror that I've bought my way free of.
