If the broadcasting is legal and public (that is, no "piracy" involved), I cannot see why not.

Everyone seems to have links that are only viewable for the european area. Does anyone have anything that works in North America???

It is definitely legal. NOS is the Netherlands' biggest sports (and news) network, and they are using the Olympics to test how the response will be.
As you might have heard, there is no commentary available, except for channel 6, which is just the online version of the dutch TV-broadcast (so that's mainly boring speedskating). There is sound from the rink itself though.

"IJshockey: Slowakije-Letland, heren", currently channel 1.

So for all of you:

IJshockey obviously is hockey.
Heren is Men
Dames is Ladies
And I think the country-names are quite obvious (though Tsjechië = Czech Rep. and Letland = Latvia)...

I either am not finding it, or it doesn't work.

After I click on this link, I get redirected to an address that has "error" in it... Odd.

We will not have access to it here since CBC/TSN and NBC have the Olympic rights, and have the right to veto any other media (TV, and internet streaming) from entering...

They can tell where you are by your IP address

Yep. I get transferred over to this other site which doesn't have any channel thing on it.

 

[MrAlfie]

isnt there any other possibility to just hide your ip or create a fake ip?

Same thing happened to me.

 

[MrAlfie]

i guess its save to say that you are not able to watch the stream if you live in north america unless you find some kind of a backdoor

 

[Crossroads*]

And usually proxies are extremely slow... so watching from North America is pretty much impossible.
