7 Comments
Comcast has struck a deal with the National Hockey League to stream NHL games live to its nearly 8 million high-speed Internet subscribers. Comcast will stream up to two matches per day, including the Stanley Cup playoffs. All broadcasts will be available in archived format up to two days after the game ends.
Local blackout restrictions will still apply, however a Comcast subscriber will be able to view a game from anywhere with a broadband connection, the company said. The news follows an August 18 announcement that made Comcast subsidiary Outdoor Life Network the new cable home of the NHL. The station will broadcast 58 games during the regular season.
