Have to wonder if NHL might provide some games online via YouTube or similar (free) system. Or if maybe a sponsor comes forward to show AHL/ECHL or college hockey on YouTube?

(For instance, tonight Yahoo is live 'casting the Phoenix-San Jose game. Something they often do 3+ times/week.)

I'd like to see them show some junior hockey.

It'd be nice to see some minor or junior games.

Even better if those games would be in HD, but that's probably asking for too much...

Well, I know the Q is already broadcasting their games on the net for free.

I wonder when the internet is the future of broadcasting in general. I think television and the internet along with it's applications will merge into a single medium at some point. Most of today's televisions come with a whole slough of internet functionality. Even if the internet doesn't eventually trump cable or internet as a broadcast medium, I can see them being so interwoven that it'll be tough to tell the difference.

I wish the OHL would stream games for free. I find their service to be very expensive, especially when you compare the quality to NHL Game Centre.
