It was already worse than 2 subscriptions before... now they ensured that people who are dumb enough to give them money could not say "well, I guess I can skip Monday games"
So they have segmented the broadcast further; showing zero care or respect for their customer base in Canada
In time this will backfire badly. We used to be a fam who watched Hockey when our kids were little, because of that my now grown son had asked to "get back into it" (we had already given up) so we pirated the feeds because it's cheaper and better service than any official broadcast partner. He could not believe we needed to check the NHL site to find out which service was carrying "today's game"
It is easy to see how so many families would just decide to go without and the fan-hood that is passed from parents to kids as they watched sports as a family would be over. Even now, most of my sons' friends could not care less about Hockey which was definitely not the case in my generation. Good job Bettman!
