Confirmed with Link: HNIC No Longer to be Televised on CBC

[scrubadam]

It's literally the exact same feed.

Maybe its just my TV or something but I feel that SN looks better than CBC. Also SN usually is 1080 and CBC is 720. Again could just be my provider. I will activly avoid watching CBC it feels like its running at a lower frame rate than SN.

As I get older, common, familiar things disappear. It's been a slow build over the years but it continually ramps up its pace. It is sad for me not because of the telecast/game but because life continues to move forward and great parts of my past become farther away.

Watching the game with dad, then friends, then my wife and kids and then just myself. 50 years and snap, it's over. Life moves incredibly fast and speeds up as you age.

For the younger people on here, enjoy life and take it as slow as possible.

Man... I miss watching hockey with my dad.
He would have loved Nick Suzuki so much!
Thank God I got to watch the 87 and 93 cups with him!

Get a firestick............cheap on a monthly basis..........all Sportsnet, TSN channels, RDS, TVA you get them all.

I'm not familiar with it and if you don't mind...I'll tap you on the shoulder for that.

Check locally to see who sells the IPTV and they will direct you to buy a firestick.

How much you're paying per month to watch? I have Amazon Prime, it's still pretty expensive imho and there are still blackouts.

Majority of sports fans have Sportsnet subscription anyway. But losing the tradition is hard

 

[River Meadow]

That's a real shame. HNIC been mainstay in Canada forever.

What money will do. They want us to pay for the games

With the way in which they cancelled Don Cherry...

F____ em.

I ain't paying for the SportsNet package nope, but the free streams are the free streams and they some times suck, specially in the playoffs.

Fair.

I have a good source which is not 4K but more than good enough for me.

That said, if I was inclined to pay, I'd probably do what @BLONG7 recommended with the IPTV and android box/tv/device. (be careful with firestick as they are rolling out a new OS which does not allow side scrolling apps any longer, it's very locked down. I think only 1 model has this now but their plan is add that piece of crap OS on their new firesticks. It might not happen cause the reviews are terrible but we'll see)

If every sport is on their own specialized channels, how will they attract new fans?

TikTok
