Soda Jerk Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Yeah, Premier have confirmed the Blackouts on their website. Looks like it's probably concrete. Dicks. I don't have and can't get Sky, so I can't get Premier, and it wouldn't be good value for me as most games are on at unmanageable times anyway. I'll mostly be watching replays the next day.Still, people in the States use this: http://www.stealthy.co/chrome/ - Switch it on to connect to the game, then once streaming, switch it off, as it will totally slow down your download speeds apparently.

HateEvent Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Seems like IP blocker type things may just be the way to go. PS can eat a dick.At least there are going to be more than plenty games that GCL will have which PS won't. HOCKEY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I just installed Stealthy. It's pretty simple. Just go into the options, and you can select a country to make your PC appear to be connecting from. I'm simply assuming Mongolia doesn't have televised NHL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Tonight is hockey night! Penguins/Flyers will hopefully be great. It usually is. Tomorrow will be spent watching replays of games I didn't watch the night before, including the Wings twatting the Blues. Hopefully. Lots of injuries though.

HateEvent Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Penguins vs Flyers is my game of choice for tonight definitely. See what's going on after that regards watching another. Blackhawks vs Kings maybe. Or Wild vs Avs if I'm still up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I've got Penguins/Flyers working with Stealthy. Fuck Gary Buttman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I was watching Pens/Flyers. I lost connection and had to refresh but cant reconnect. Site just doesn't load. Been trying to nearly an hour. Money well spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Wings got a hiding in St Louis. 0-6. It was a drab game despite all the goals. If not for Howard, it would have been 0-20. Awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Tarasenko or whatever his name is for the Blues. Scored on his first 2 shots on goal of his career. Ouch! Vancouver got humped as well. I'm on your so cant watch the Sabres opener from the comfort of my bed but I'm gonna try an watch it on my phone if the 13th note has decent wifi. Starts at half 5. Fuck the Flyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 The Sabres game is on Premier Sports, so it'll be blacked out for 48 hours. Can you do proxy on a phone? That Stealthy program works a treat for Google Chrome.Infact, GCL are just Blacking out a handful of games which Premier Sports aren't even showing. The Chicago/LA game last night was blacked out but wasn't on TV. Proxys are a necessity if you don't want Buttman and his shitty blackouts to ruin the season.

Soda Jerk Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Sabres game has been mint. It got nasty in the 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Couldn't watch the game but seen the score and all the goals. Vanek's 5 point night, Pominville 3 assists, Hodgson showed he's worth of te 1st line centre position and Ott scored in his first game as a Sabre. Awesome. Gonna watch the full game after work then stay up till midnight to watch us hump the Leafs. Hockey is fucking great. Joe, if you don't do much on Sundays you should join us for hockey Sunday. Someone's flat, some beers and a fuck load of hockey. Ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Rangers and Flyers, probably billed as the top 2 teams in the East (Pens fit in there as well I guess)...both are 0-2-0 to start the season. Hmmmmm.Barry Melrose said Wild vs Rangers then Rangers in 6 games. I disagree. Rangers and Blues with Rangers in 5. I think I said Rangers Canucks earlier, but fuck them. If they finally traded Luongo they might earn some respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HateEvent Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Great success! 2 from 2 Parise getting his first as well. Lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Sound. Also, since I'm guessing people might be watching games the day after rather than live all the time, we should probably get in the habit of putting any scores/stories from games within the last 2 days in spoiler tags. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I was just about to suggest spoilers. It's a good idea. I won't be catching too many live games due to the time difference, except those midday/afternoon faceoffs on the weekends.The Sabres game yesterday was the only live game I've caught so far. Great game though. I haven't caught any of last nights games yet. Was there any standout games worth watching the full replay of (without mentioning any scores, obvs).Wings in Columbus tonight. If we're lucky, we might even score a goal. Quincey is shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Indeed.I need to block/hide/unfriend/unlike all hockey related stuff I have on facebook to avoid seeing anything before I choose to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Yeah I've not seen all the Sabres game yet but I'm going to watch it after work despite seeing all the goals/score. Excitement got the better of me.The Sabres game yesterday was a rare one. You don't get too many 12:30 EST starts but they're ideal if they happen on a Saturday or Sunday. No idea about any other games as I was in a van coming back from Glasgow till 2am and now I'm at work. UGH.Sabres/Maple Leafs tonight. Miller doesn't like the Leafs and has a real good record against them so I'm staying up to watch it.NHL Fans in the UK have a 48 hour before discussing "rule". Gonna have to delete/hide posts from most other hockey pages on facebook though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 We're not playing again until Tuesday night into Wednesday against the Predators. Urgh.I'll probably watch the Bruins vs Jets game after work (1pm ET) and then maybe some of the Predators vs Blues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Watched the Rangahs and Islanders games this wknd. Never been a huge hockey fan but as with most sports I can easily watch it. I clearly dont know enough about the various tactics and why they do certain things (putting the puck around the boards at odd times, etc) but i'm gonna make an effort to follow the NHL and learn a bit more this season. I've plumped for being an Islanders fan. They're supposedly moving to Brooklyn at some point so I look forward to seeing some games when they do. Of all the sports fans in new york, the Rangers fans are by far the most vocal. If you're knockin about town you definitely know there's a game on.

Soda Jerk Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Pens/Rangers game was awesomeFight breaks out just as the game faces off. It was big hits galore after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'm having issues using Stealthy when attempting to watch the Bruins vs Jets game. I didn't think I'd still be blacked out even when I'm "in Ghana". Got the Lightning @ Islanders on just now instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Have you tried changing the country? I've not changed from Mongolia actually, and it gets me through all Blackouts so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Weird. Changed to Mongolia and success! Ghana must be getting the games... LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
