NHL 2021 Season

[Isgrimnur]

[The Meal]

This is a pretty good season primer for folks who hadn't been paying attention.

[Jolor]

Let's gooooo, NHL 2021-21!!!!!

Ick

The Philadelphia Flyers announced [01/13/21] that for the first time in franchise history, Flyers players' helmets will feature a sponsorship logo, that of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), the global IT services, consulting and business solutions company. The TCS logo will appear on each side of the players' helmets for both home and away games throughout the regular season and the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Amid the pandemic-shortened 56 game season, the National Hockey League (NHL) has for the first time permitted clubs to work this season with corporate partners on this unique sponsorship opportunity.

Have you seen the Penguins' buckets yet? Those are big time ick.

Bobby Ryan makes history for Detroit tonight, scoring his fourth goal in his first three games in the Winged Wheel sweater. It's never been done before.

[Isgrimnur]

I had not.

Spoiler:

[Isgrimnur]

The Hurricanes should trade with the Flames.

Caught the first one in game 2 but then the NHL decided to blackout the Red Wings on the app in Chicago.

Ryan was a nice pickup. He made a big deal about game 2 being his first game in an O6 sweater. That checks a box for me.

[LawBeefaroni]

Also, "Discover Central"?

Ugh.

NHL decided to blackout

I bailed on the Center Ice package this year because of a combination of blackouts and audio sync issues.

He's comin' in hot, Detroit!

The corporate logo the Blackhawks have is not overly offensive.
Their play, however, is.

[gilraen]

I barely even noticed the Ball logo on the Avs' helmets. The logo is pretty muted, and the color fits. Some of the other teams were not so lucky with their corporate sponsorship

I also had no idea that the Pepsi Center in Denver was renamed to Ball Arena. Only found that out during the first Avalanche game, when the commentators mentioned it, and I was, like, "they are playing where?"

[The Meal]

We need to the Rockies to change their home venue to Puck Park.

[pr0ner]

The Hurricanes should trade with the Flames.

Nah. The Hurricanes have a bank with a worse logo on their helmets.

[The Meal]

He was pointing out that the Scotia(Bank) logo resembles a hurricane symbol.

100% aware. The PNC logo on the Canes helmet is not as clean as the Scotiabank logo, which is why I'm declining the trade.

NBCSN to fold by end of 2021.

NBCSN to fold by end of 2021.

Finding games is hard enough as it is.
All of these companies splitting into other channels is getting out of hand.

[The Meal]

This one's being sold to us as being a consolidation.

I posted earlier in this thread where I watch my games. What's a channel?

Until I can figure out if/how I can stream to my tv, those options are a no go for now,

Between NHL.tv, NBCSN (well, soon to be USA and probably Fox or ESPN), and NHL Network, and the local RSN, I can watch all the games I need to. On my TV. *shrug*

Chromecast. From my computer to my TV. Works great.

I use volokit.com, but I'm gonna take note of the other options that Meal provided

I don't want to watch just any games...I want to watch my team play. And these days in Colorado, if you are a Comcast subscriber, it ain't happening. Even if you pay for NHL Center Ice or the game is on NBCSN, it gets blacked out locally.

It seems my team decided it will not compete this season and offers no reason to watch anywhere, anytime. It's a sports-free winter since our NBA team liked that plan and is imitating the hockey team.
