WJC: WJC Online Broadcasting?

[Fried Tree Sap]

I have recently had to cancel my TV subscription, and am none too happy about missing out on the World Juniors. I've been looking into ways to stream them online and am perfectly willing to pay.

Living in the U.S. I always have the option to sign up for a month of Sling TV or Fubo in order to get access to the NHL network, but I have never been too happy with their coverage in the past as they don't broadcast all of the games. Does anyone know if there are any better legal alternatives for streaming the WJC in the U.S.? Frustratingly enough, I just can't seem to find very much information about the broadcasting schedule, and don't want to start spending money with out knowing what I'm getting out of it.

I figure the only way to get ALL the games is to watch it on TSN. If you're in the US, that's a problem.

Don't they usually stream the WJCs on YouTube? I feel like they have in the past, or am I thinking of a different event?

I think it depends on who is hosting. I've watched it on youtube some years, but others have not been available. I think it has to do with who airs it on tv and/or if anyone have bought the rights to it in your own country.

NHLN-US is your option. You'll find that the first three days of the WJC are already in their listings, with all games covered live, except for Day 1 & 3 2PM ET games on 12PM, 2PM, 4PM, 8PM ET gamedays. Those 2 PM ET games will get morning replays the next day.

Pauly Kwestel‏ @pkwestel - Will all USA games be streamed as they were last year?
Chris Peters‏@chrismpeters - Only game streamed last year was the gold game.
I don't know if Dave has any info on that, but no streaming mentioned in the release.

FYI, USA pre-tournament games will be available on FastHockey, HockeyTV, whatever you want to call it, while Canada's should be on TSN.
