Re: NHL Gamecenter
Just had a look and it has monday night's games up there. You can turn the scores off as well. I dont have the will power to not look at the scores when I get up! The condensed highlights look pretty decent too. 10 minute highlights instead of the 3-4minute ones on the main website!

Re: NHL Gamecenter
Gamecenter is up for the new season. $50 for the regular season and playoffs.
Last year i think it was about $170 so even for a half season thats a reasonable discount.

Re: NHL Gamecenter
I'm about to break all y'all fellow gamecenter subscibers hearts. All games shown on Premier Sports will be unavailable on gamecenter. The NFL blackouts on Gamepass aren't so bad because 2 games a week isn't much but Premier Sports are showing 15 games (12 live) in the first week of the season!!! And they have rights to NHL Tonight.
Games not available to Gamecenter.
Jan 19 - Pens @ Flyers - 8pm
Jan 19 - Leafs @ Habs - Midnight
Jan 19 - Avs @ Wild - 2am (Don't know why they think the Leafs-Habs will be finished in that time)
Jan 20 - Blackhawks @ Kings - 9am on delay
Jan 20 - Caps @ Bolts - 11am on delay
Jan 20 - Flyers @ Sabres - 5:30pm
Jan 20 - Stars @ Wild - 1am
Jan 21 - Jets @ Bruins - 10pm on delay
Jan 21 - Ducks @ Flames - 2am
Jan 22 - Bolts @ Canes - Midnight
Jan 23 - Leafs @ Pens - Midnight
Jan 23 - Flames @ Canucks - 3am
Jan 24 - Rangers @ Flyers - Midnight
Jan 24 - Yotes @ Sharks - 3:30am
Jan 25 - Wild @ Red Wings - 12:30am
You have my permission to join me in sobbing.

Ha! Don't blame ya. The NHL have hardly provided much consideration to fans over the last few months.
Might get Game Vault again. Only 5 dollars a month...

Re: NHL Gamecenter
Supporting the Stars at last haha we rarely get shown so I can't see it affecting me too much. That is rather shit though.
Re: NHL Gamecenter
You guys should say how missing just TWO games a week gets up the backs of certain NFLUK members. Getting mad about this is far more understandable than the NFL blackouts.
Re: NHL Gamecenter
Check this out....apparently what the NHL says and what Premier Sports say conflict....

Re: NHL Gamecenter
That "not in any teams market" line doesn't really matter. Gamepass blacks out the NFL games Sky show but that's part of their deal. If Premier Sports are saying this mid-contract then they don't have a leg to stand on.
Re: NHL Gamecenter
Yeah I am inclined to go with what Premier Sports are saying. Can't see any mention of it on the NHL pages so far.
Re: NHL Gamecenter
Im sure Premier sports showed NHL games last season. There were no blackouts then.

Thats what makes this disgusting , they had no blackouts this year but now decide they want to ? If they blackout the playoffs then what is the point of GCL?

Re: NHL Gamecenter
Premier sports have just said on their Facebook page that the games showed with a delay are not blacked out. Reading through the comments, I'm not convinced they really know what they are talking about.
It's looking like the games they show wont be live on gamecenter, but will be shown after, which is fine by me as its rare I can watch live anyway.

Re: NHL Gamecenter
If I can watch all the games the next morning I'm fine with that but blackouts in a country where you can't go to the games nor get them on national TV is ridiculous. Still not sure what will happen with the play-offs as they are all on NBC and as such blacked out which means they may not even be streamed for us.

Re: NHL Gamecenter
I don't think it matters for us who broadcasts the playoffs in the US or Canada, last year they were all available.

Re: NHL Gamecenter
That's the thing last year none were blacked out. From the comment on their website it looks like this is a new thing.
Re: NHL Gamecenter
Look up their Facebook page, the most recent post is full of people, questioning them and it appears GCL are still telling people there are no blackouts. Even premier sports don't seem to sure based on their comments.

Re: NHL Gamecenter
Looks like Premier Sports are done for.
Their contract it would seem only covers tv broadcasts and no online streaming.
Looks like GCL is go .

Re: NHL Gamecenter
I've given them a piece of my mind.
Suppose we'll all see tomorrow whether it's all confirmed or the same carry on as tonight.

Hello MR M W TWINBERROW. How may I help you?
MR M W TWINBERROW Wed, 1/16/2013 11:48:03 am
Hello i would like to ask why your channel is mis informing users over the apparent NHL blackout
Alan Wed, 1/16/2013 11:50:49 am
Hello as already mentioned on the website, live games for broadcast on premiersports are exclusive and theerfore not shown on the gamecentre live within the UK and Ireland
MR M W TWINBERROW Wed, 1/16/2013 11:51:40 am
The NHL have told me and numerous other users that you own exclusive NHL rights for TV thus not impacting on online streams for example gamecentre
Alan Wed, 1/16/2013 11:52:02 am
Indeed we have secured the rights for the NHL for the 4 years to come
We are advertising the fixtures as to what we are broadcasting and there is nothing misinformed to users
MR M W TWINBERROW Wed, 1/16/2013 11:53:55 am
Why are you saying you are blacking out the games for GCL users ? you did not do this last year. Do you not feel that this just is another kick in the teeth to fans who have stayed loyal to the NHL even with a shortened season?
Alan Wed, 1/16/2013 11:55:48 am
i am sorry but I will not be able to continue with this chat session. Should you have any complaints relating to the NHL please send an email to enquiries@premiersports.tv and this will go the Management Team od Premier Sports
