ECHL TV?

Any good? It is pretty expensive. The AHL got their package offering in order this year.

The quality varies quite a bit from building to building. I've heard the league was working with the streaming company to get all buildings upgraded to HD and improve the internet connections for the stream. Also, they typically aren't professional camera operators. Just an intern, or team staff person in many cases. The feed is typically the same as the team uses on the video board, so not the typical angles for TV, and you get all the local ads, crowd shots, in arena promos, etc. That said, it's the only option if you want to see away games. If you don't expect perfection and are willing to put up with occasional interruptions and video that is occasionally out of synch with the audio, it is better than just listening to the radio, or online audio stream.

Sounds good. I'm going to give it a shot for this year.

My issue is it's too expensive for what you get. If it was in HD and you didn't get the arena crap in the stream I'd be a lot happier paying what they charge.
