I’d also like to collect more opinions on this (at the nuisance of rehashing an old conversation). I tend to stream sports via starstream.tv but, unlike BTN cable, niche BTN apps are excluded from my service. I don’t mind collecting more services but I sort of reject BTN+ on principle. Too expensive for the quality, and the fact that hockey doesn’t have more priority for BTN-cable remains depressing. Earlier this season, I recall discussions of a hockey streaming service named on.hockey.com or .net or somesuch. I never got it to work but other users reported good results and I’d certainly benefit from input by those who found success!

BTN minus sucks.  Usually they show the Jumbotron feed with a tie in to the radio broadcast.  Quality is really bad and the fact they charge for it is outrageous. It’s like putting toilet water in a bottle and selling it as bottled water plus.   
 

I ended up buying tickets to the non televised home games.  I hope people watch channel 50 so they keep showing games.

Bad period. Penn State had an aggressive forecheck and it caused a lot of turnovers. Really had trouble exiting our own zone. Not great considering the opponent

Last 2-3 minutes were better but not a good period
