Either the Bruins or the Avalanche have to be good this season or else it will be a long winter of my teams sucking....after a long summer of both the Rox and BoSox sucking

There's still the NBA.

It looked like the episode was blocked on NHL Network for some reason, but they released episode 1 on Youtube!Originally Posted by Teh One Who Knocks

So Chicago and Philly are playing their first game in the Czech Republic. Interesting.

No local team on TV here this season to start. The Altitude Sports Network carries all Avalanche and Nuggets games here and they are in a contract dispute with the Big 3, Comcast, Dish, and DirectTV. All three dropped the network when the contract expired last month because all three say that the network wants too much money to be broadcast while the Big 3 say that Altitude is a minor network that brings very little revenue. So, no hockey or basketball to start the season(s) in the Mountain West region.
And unless they get this solved and it gets REALLY drawn out, it will affect Rockies games next season as Altitude carries the Rox...and it also carries the Mammoth (Denver's pro indoor lacrosse team) as well.
Aren't there other ways to get your local area sports on TV or the web?

Nope, Altitude is the exclusive home of the Avalanche and Nuggets, the channel is owned by the owner of the Nuggets and Avalanche (the Rockies could always jump ship if they wanted to do so since they aren't under that ownership umbrella). And Altitude at this point doesn't do any streaming. And can't watch the Avalanche even if you paid for the NHL hockey package that gets you every game because they always black out the local market games.
So basically, the owner's a fuckin' dick.

He's trying to say that the Big 3 are trying to rip Altitude Sports off by lowballing the network.

I hate to say it but, I actually believe Comcast and Dish in this one. I'm thinking that this small regional sports network is trying to demand ESPN or FOX Sports type money from them.

The little networks are always in disputes with the big dogs.

That's absolute horseshit.
And you know what the $140 a year online NHL subscription gets you? 50+ blacked out local games.
So with that said, here you gohttps://www.reddit.com/r/NHLStreams/
Sometimes the quality sucks (obviously) but better than nothing if you can be bothered with online streams. They almost always have active streams for any NHL game.

I was looking for online streaming options for my Roku that I could watch on my TV, I don't want to watch it on a small screen if I'm going to watch a game, and I came across this: https://www.hockeytv.com/schedule/elite?date=2019-10-04That's absolute horseshit.

It's not pro hockey, but it's all things amateur and minor league. If you want ALL the games (which there appears to be about a bazillion per day) it runs $30/month, but there are quite a few games that are free as well. Might be worth looking into when there's nothing on TV and you feel like watching a good ol' hockey game.

And what sucks even worse about this are the poor sports bars. There are a few in downtown Denver as well as some in the 'burbs that are hockey bars and they make most of their money during hockey season. Now they have absolutely no way to show the games on TV. Right now about the only way to see an Avalanche game in Colorado now is to go to a game, which most people can't afford to do.That's absolute horseshit.

Cheapest seats at Pepsi Center in the lower level are $109/each and that's straight back behind the nets. Anywhere in between the goal lines will start at $145/each. Cheapest seats in the barn are last row, upper deck, straight back behind the nets, and those are $37/each. Add in $20+ for parking if you want to be anywhere close to the arena, $9 beers and $8 hot dogs and you are looking at a minimum of $120/$130 for 2 people to go see a game in the worst seats possible.
So the Bruins are 3-0-0 and that's their best start in 18 seasons
