I haven't found cable or satellite information yet, but here is the info about streaming:

https://ahl.neulion.com/ahl/secure/registerform

• Every game: $249.00
• Just your team: $44.00
• Individual games: $9.99

A bit overpriced if you ask me, but I may check out a game or 2 to try it out.

Wow, do they think this is the NHL? That's way overpriced.

I saw something on redit awhile ago where people did nothing but complain about this package. Apparently it's not worth the money.

If it's anything like the AHL gamecenter thing on their website, then yeah. Total rip off. I paid last year for two games and it's usually a feed from the jumbotron except really grainy and pixilated.

And they wonder why people pirate their broadcasts. When will these companies learn that you need to offer a good price and high quality to stop people from looking for free alternatives?

Because some of us will never stop looking at free alternatives

Pegula needs to start his own TV network. Something like the old Empire Sports Network!

You'd think Time Warner Sports would step up to the plate. They'd be able to offer Bills and Sabres coverage plus a bunch of college teams including SU...and The Amerks/ Bisons/Chiefs/Red Wings I'd actually like them to takeover broadcasting Sabre games from MSG ... plus they'd be able to have multiple channels to spread out the coverage.

Edit:

But I guess it would suck for Dish, Direct TV and Fios users ..haha

Would be a good way to sway customers back to cable tho.

I wouldn't be surprised if that happens when Comcast takes over.

No confirmation on TV coverage of #Amerks at Chicago for Games 3, 4 and 5 but appears likely. Picking up Wolves feed.

Amerks aren't on TV in there own market?

Wolves have been on Chicagoland TV since arriving (Not marque channels of course but easy to find)

A) It costs money to put them on the air

B) It allows people to stay home instead of going to the game (i.e. not spending money)

They usually put about 11 home games on TWCS and will pick up 1 or 2 games in Syracuse and a game in Bingo from their TWCS broadcasts.
