QUECHEE, Vermont -- It may appear as if I watch a lot of bandy and/or hockey, but I really don't. I don't have cable, meaning the only NHL games I get to watch are either in bars or whenever NBC shows it. I do go to a lot of games, but these are mostly college and minor league games, and that is, at most, 30 games a season. Most of the hockey, and all of the bandy since I moved out of Russia, I listen to on Internet radio. But I am tired of hearing about my beloved Boston Bruins through my computer's tinny speakers and never getting to see them.
So I have discovered three options to boost my hours of hockey watching, in descending order of price:
1. Get cable with the NHL Center Ice package
2. Get cable and rely on Versus, Altitude (the Colorado Avalanche flagship channel) and ESPN for hockey
3. Get the NHL Center Ice Online package
Does anyone have Center Ice? How much does it cost, and is it worth it? What about the online version - are the quality and reliability decent?
If you would like to help me out with my conundrum, write me an email or post a comment on this blog. And keep supporting bandy - maybe one day there will be a Russian Bandy League cable package.
