OT: Off Season / Summer Thread

[Thechozen1]

Anyone have any insight at all as to who will be doing the PBP on TSN Jets this season. Has anyone from the media speculated who potential candidates are?

Which of Stanley, Samberg, Heinola need to clear waivers before going to the Moose?

Stanley.

Just wondering, I live outside the Jets regional broadcasting area and have relied on NHL Live to get all the games in the past. Since NHL Live is no longer available to Canadians and SportsNet NOW is only carrying 22 Jets games this year (I believe), how are other folks living outside of the broadcast region planning on getting the games for this upcoming season?

I use Center Ice. Costs me 200$ a season and I get pretty much every game for all teams.

Centre ice seems like the only legit option nowadays. Sportsnet now app is horrendous, no one should ever pay for that.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like I might have to subscribe to a cable service for Centre Ice, no "streaming only" option available.

From the oracle that is the InterWeb:

What is NHL Centre Ice : What is NHL Centre Ice and how do I access it?

NHL Centre Ice is a subscription package of regular season NHL games that are played outside of your local area. The games included in this package are in addition to those available through your local and regional networks.

You think a smart business plan would be to make your product available to those that want to pay to get at it??

Haha, Toth. I just had a comical text conversation with him about Maurice. It got a little intense and I think I might actually have caused him to mess up an on-air interview he was doing. I forgot he was still doing a show! I remembered and turned the stream on just in time to hear him go "dead-air" for about 20 seconds while his guest was still there..."Jim? Jim are you there?" Then just after he comes back on I get a text response from him...

I was just receiving a skid of paper towels at work that arrived from Toronto, and this little guy was a stowaway...

I guess the mosquitoes in Tarana aren't as tasty as ours...

The Leisure Guide registration site has crashed at launch. I wish I could say I was surprised but I'm not.

Will your workplace now be known as the House of the Dragonflies?

Was in town couple weeks ago, saw my fam and friends. Many things changed, some stayed the same.

Always a good hospitality.
Cheers.

8 years old, glued to the set with my dad the entire time. Fabulous memories. The absolute peak of my fandom.

Thank you for this. Even though I have never experienced the 70s, I can't stop watching hockey games and docus from that decade. the same applies to the 80s.

Even though I'm from Europe, I have always liked the way Canadians played hockey and therefore have always been a Canada fan. Especially when my local team (EV Zug) started to sign players like Ken Yaremchuk, John Miner, Wes Walz, Paul DiPietro, Bill McDougall or Todd Elik.

Don't know where to post this so I picked this thread - hoping a Wpg area fan can help out.

I'm currently signed up with Bell for Cable service including the package that provides viewing of all Jets games.
I'd like to cut the cable and stick with streaming only -
Can anyone help in confirming how I can watch all Jets game without cable?
Much appreciated -

Anyone tried any of the burger week burgers around town? I had the one at the Original Joe's in St. Vital earlier today and it was good, but man it was $20 for the burger alone. I don't think I'll get much of an opportunity to get out and look around this year given the hours I'm working right now. It'd be nice if any of you guys had one you could recommend for me

I'm eyeballing this one right now.

Went out and found a whole bunch of lobster mushrooms today on a spur of the moment decision. Probably about 6 lbs.
Going back tomorrow better prepared.
Found a couple of Boletes but no pipanki yet.
