It's probably better for you folk as the video won't be blocked. Not that the video was great but they've overemphasised it and when it's blocked there's no point in visiting.

*It's blocked b/c I live outside Canada obviously.

There's one thing that bugs me about the NHL site these days. When I go there on my tablet, it forces me into the mobile site. Then I can go to full site, but it will switch me back to the mobile site after a while. I like scoreboard laid out in the full site, among other things.

Likewise with THN Corn.

I used to use the TSN site 90% of the time to check boxscores and team stats, but haven't gone there for over two months now.

15 years TSN has been my go to website. Alas, no more.

First season under the new format and I give TSN.ca a D grade.

- So many links don't work.
- they no longer have prospects in their list of players
- they no longer seem to have written content, they always want to show their video so they can do commercials

Today under the Kronwall suspension, one link only had the highlights of the game yet the title was about the suspension, one link was not working and the 3rd link actually worked.

TSN will soon be relegated to Toronto sports only as I move to other sites to get my information.

I've stopped going there for a while now. Like you say, it's mostly video - and I can't watch them due to my 'geo-location' - so the site is pretty much useless now.

I've been using The Score app for over a year now. Waaay less bullshit, quicker score updates. TSN started licking bag about when I swapped and I haven't been back

On board with deserting TSN

They are "regional" at best

I still don't visit TSN.ca since they rebuilt the site.

I have long used THN however, but now grow frustrated with it as well. They no longer show the scores of games, box scores or summaries.

WTF??? Do they have any idea how many hits they will lose if they don't provide scores?

They have the scores on the top, click on the game and it shows the box score.

I've been using NHL.com for the stats and scores - they have most of it in one place and usually link highlights - or goal replays in the scores. Although.... I hate having to watch a 30 second commercial before I'm able to watch a 12 second replay.

funny no matter where you go in the world or how shitty the computer or connection is, those ads run perfectly just before the screen freezes, you get the wheel of death, or "I'm sorry the video you requested is not available in your jurisdiction"
