The NHL has come to an agreement with Google to make games available - it wouldn't be live but at least it's legal 8-) .

I think this should help our friends overseas who can't watch the games on TV... :D

This is a stroke of genius for the NHL. I can't even begin to fathom the number of ways in which this will help their marketing efforts.

Thanks for the info, same as Rising Sun, I'm watching my first Canucks game in over 2 years, from here in Perth Australia.

Luongo looks fantastic!

live games:

http://www.myp2p.eu/NHL.htm

I'm working on the road for most of this season, and without this site, I'd be following most games by radio... this site has most games streamed live! Just follow instructions to d/l the TVU player, and you can then click on the link according to schedule and watch games!

re-watching the 1994 game 7, 12 years, and the difference in the refs.

if using the current rule set in that game 7, there'd be no game 7

The TVU streams are down as of Thursday. The NHL sent the guy who ran the streams a letter telling him to stop and he went and complied. Very sad, that was great while it lasted.

Gotta Love Google !
However there seems to a bit of a delay (over 1 month) in getting games up on the Google video site. Anyone know what the availability of games is?
Is there a schedule?

I'm dying to watch some games from the current winning streak ! javascript:emoticon(':o')

Calgary games were good ... lots of intensity ... Edmonton game in Edmonton was good for the goals and the Dallas game was a great goaltender duel between Turco and Luongo ... enjoy them !!

What part of Australia are you from ??

very sad to see TVU go, that was always great being able to watch games live, and often from the other team's channel so you got to hear the other side of the coin. I really enjoyed it, and hope they can find a way to do something similar again, it was a great thing while it lasted!
