I do love how Conservatives have used "cancel culture" as a marketing tool. Buy this before it's cancelled!!!

Interesting how the embed ends up cutting off the image in such a way that you don't even see Vasilevski at the top.

THEY DIDN'T gently caress IT UP COMPLETELY. For the most part, it's playoffs-focused, along with NHL.TV now attached to ESPN+. https://espnpressroom.com/us/press-...term-agreement/ quote:The Walt Disney Company, ESPN and National Hockey League Reach Groundbreaking Long-Term Agreement

That actually sounds horrible to me because it means I have to pay ESPN, or more specifically Disney, to watch hockey. Yet again I'm buying giant packages of stuff I don't watch to get the one thing I do want to watch. I like NHL.tv because it's laser focused, they just need to fix the blackout garbage.

Yeah and yet the previous tweet you posted had Andy at the bottom of the league in GSAx, this is the issue with scoring chance models is that each one differs so much and what people count when they count them changes. Andersen is rough on these aggregate stats because he's two different goalies: top of the league on low-danger chances at 5 on 5 and bottom of the league on high-danger chances and on the PK. How well he grades out depends on how much weight those different aspects are given. Personally I think a goalie that saves high-danger shots at a league average rate for the Leafs would be more valuable than a goalie who gives up one fewer goal every 30 point shots he sees. The fun thing is that on a team like the Islanders Andersen might be a Vezina candidate but on a team like the Leafs he's probably worse than average because their weakness is also his weakness.

Yet again I'm buying giant packages of stuff I don't watch to get the one thing I do want to watch. I can’t tell if this is horrible or great. There’s two huge unknowns- 1) Do DNS-based blackout workarounds like Yonder.tv work with ESPN+? 2) Its unclear from the article if all the games will simply be a part of ESPN+, or if NHL.tv will be an add-on service to ESPN+ and require an additional cost. If it’s the former, that’s great because a year of ESPN+ is only 72 bucks as opposed to a season of NHL.tv being 129 bucks or whatever.

1) who is nostalgic for Stephen Harper. Even the most ardent centre right Canadians I know at best view him as a competent placeholder prime minister. 2) Is this move of NHL.tv to ESPN+ going to affect the Canadian rights? 3) I guess it makes sense why Disney decided to reboot the Mighty Ducks now of all times.

Canadian NHL.tv/Gamecenter is separate. it's run by Rogers and isn't even the same platform.

Now that the press release is back, I'll go back to this:OldSenileGuy posted:2) Its unclear from the article if all the games will simply be a part of ESPN+, or if NHL.tv will be an add-on service to ESPN+ and require an additional cost. If it’s the former, that’s great because a year of ESPN+ is only 72 bucks as opposed to a season of NHL.tv being 129 bucks or whatever. The bit of the press release I was referencing: quote:Additionally, ESPN+ subscribers get truly incredible value with more than 1,000 out-of-market games now available digitally only on the industry-leading sports streaming service – making it a must-have for hockey fans. That strongly seems to suggest it's just part of ESPN+ and not an add-on.

It's fitting that it's the Red Ensign because that was the flag the last year the Leafs won the Stanley Cup. I know it was two years earlier but gently caress it that ruins my joke that the leafs haven't won in forever so I'm going with it

Is ESPN+ available anywhere or do they have market restrictions in place? Even then, there are workarounds- I can watch the CBJ anywhere as long as I'm logged into FSGO from my Ohio account.
