@Goatonosavior @BuffaloSabres @ESPNPlus I never had NHL TV but I've been having problem with the NHL games on ESPN+. Stuttering, low resolution, and freezing up have been frequent during live games.

@JoeYerdon My biggest issue is no pregame/postgame shows. Come on, @ESPNPlus, go the extra quarter mile here. It's a half hour before and after every game, and NHLtv did it.

@charleszimm @penguins @ESPNPlus @ESPNPlusHelp @NHLTVSupport Yeah, my issue is I pay for Hulu Live, so I can catch games played in Philly or DC, because I get NBC Sports Philly and Washington. But Hulu Live doesn't have the NHL Network, only Fubo and Sling do. I'm not about to upend my whole live setup just because the @NHL is being dumb.

@StarStruck014 Oh, for the games that are just on those two you should be able to watch on there. ESPN+ is exactly like NHL TV was. You can watch every game, every team, unless your local team has black out rules. So I can't watch BSSW games on ESPN+. That's my issue, I don't get BSSW.

@RJW_290 @cjw1357 We don’t have Sky so the only way I could watch Premier is the online player. And when I’ve watched on there in the past it’s always been bad. Broken videos and lost connections. I barely get any of that with NHL TV. I work lates so I’m up for games anyway so it’s worth it for me

All other yrs I paid the NHL directly for nhl tv and then had vpn. Now, I can’t find a way to watch all the games. It’s sad I can’t give the nhl my money directly to watch their product.

@Torkium @PuckPodcast @ScottyMurrin I’ve got the fetch subscription, it’s definitely not as smooth as with nhltv, and there are features that are missing but it has been improving with each game. I have to cast to my tv from my iPad or hook my laptop in via hdmi. So that’s definitely a step down from last year
