It’s a Canadian thing. You wouldn’t understand.
Not really a /tv/ topic but yeah it's horseshit. These idiots are going to kill the NHL by pricing everyone out of it. Oilers tickets are 100 bucks a pop minimum and everything in Rogers costs quadruple what it should.
>>221190793Really? Damn that sucks. As a burger the memes in /hoc/ were pretty fun years ago and I know HNIC has been on for a long long time.

>>221190793NHL is retarded and deserves to go bankrupt. They wouldn't let some community centre in Gatineau air Habs playoff games because technically they were still in the Ottawa Senators territory (who were already eliminated)
>>221191687You love to see another year and another American team winning the Stanley Cup. How long has it been since a Canadian team won it again?
>>221191687NHL has literally been run by a New York Jew since 1992.

So it's finally over for Canada? They are giving up on hockey?
>>221190793Fucking what?!As a former tier 2 junior A player and 20 year Zamboni operator.That's a national disgrace.
>>221191567
The sooner the circuses end the sooner we get the needed violence to take back western civilization.Watching someone else do an activity has always been retarded. Sports are the boomer version of watching Asmongold.Sports were meant as a proxy to settle disputes between communities non-violently. Once teams stopped being comprised of residents they stopped serving a purpose. Having the blackest african gorilla nigger representing what were and should be white areas is meant to be a a direct insult. These aren't the best players, they are specifically selected the same way the HR department isn't going to hire a white person. They want you dead, your children raped and enslaved and they think it is funny. I once had an Ottawa senator approach me at a wedding thinking it would be some great moment for me. He walked off when I told him I play soccer.
Someone posted a picture of a young Chloe Grace Moretz with 4 NY Jets a day or two ago and one of them has smaller legs than her.
>live in a city of 400k>no CBC OTA broadcastI guess it doesn't really affect me because I got to stream it anyways but fuck rogers, even bell is a bit less jewish
>>221191567this
>>221190793gary bettman has already killed the NHL so who cares anywayno team from any location that actually receives snow will ever be allowed to win the cup ever again
Thank God I’m Canadian. Look at all these poor foreigners and raging fags. It must suck in your countries kek
>>221190793I was just talking about this with my coworker! I was like, oh man, now people are gonna need a sub to watch hockey when it used to be free and that suuuucks.
>>221193367I don't see how it isn't horrible for the longevity of a sport (or other cultural institutions - let's face it Hockey in Canada is like Football in the South) when these leagues and broadcast partners go locking up their content behind increasingly difficult to navigate paywalls and discovery paths.And yet, I look at the MLB and despite all their crazy shenanigans, it's surging in popularity right now. You couldn't watch the Dodgers in LA for years if you weren't on spectrum cable!It's more eroding of things of culturally binding behind some PE/finance guys dream of squeezing every last ounce of monetary value from a thing.
>>221193540I am such a fucking eeyore but.. Canada, you consistently underwhelm meso much potential, so many cool ideas, but give it time and we'll just.. let it all slip away
The Hockey Night in Canada theme is probably one of the first tunes I ever learned. It was the soundtrack to my father sitting in the big chair with a cigarette and a mug of tea and yelling at our black-and-white television.
>>221190884I think this could be a precursor to the death of OTA TV in general. Hockey Night in Canada was the one thing that even the most conservative CBC haters could see as a common good - anyone with a tv and an antenna could watch. But now that it's gone.....
>>221191789Half the American teams haven’t won a Stanley Cup in 30 years either. A country run by a pedo can’t really troll anyone btw
>>221191118It's not just Canada. Meanwhile, south of the border, I've been following along as Pablo Torre Finds Out has been reporting on the NFLPA collusion with the NFL and the general trend of the NFL wanting to move to 18 games (CTE? what's that?) parceled out one or two at a time to various subscribed silos — streamers, networks, etc. Same thing here, it would seem. Apparently owning one of the last monocultures in a nation is not economically preferable to breaking its season apart and selling it off piecemeal. That, or the people who are making these decisions are fucking shortsighted. I guess we'll all find out.
>>221191156I guess sports cost too much these days to be justified on free-to-air TV. It's sad, in that it's an end of an era, but I'm kind of ambivalent about it because if you were an NHL fan you probably already had a Sportsnet subscription to watch all the games that aren't HNIC.Back when there were only 6 teams you could say that NHL hockey was a national unifier because there were only 2 Canadian teams so everyone was a fan of one of them (although it tended to be Quebec were fans of the Canadiens and the rest of Canada were fans of the Leafs). But now it's only Atlantic Canada that doesn't have a team and I don't know if NHL hockey serves that purpose anymore. International hockey still does because it's just Team Canada that people cheer for, as opposed to the Flames or the Senators.
>>221191348In a way, it highlights how professional hockey is no longer Canada's sport in the way it once was. When the Canadians were doing well enough that a Stanley Cup final was a possibility, ESPN was flop sweating at the idea of half of its viewers disappearing. I mean, NHL teams in Las Vegas and North Carolina? (Las Vegas??) Or even Gretsky basically expatriating to Mar-a-lago. It really just isn't a part of Canadian culture as much as it once was. It's a business, and now an American-centric business at that.
>>221191622Hard to watch the siloing happen without feeling like the broadcasters are the problem. Broadcaster starts moving more games behind subscription service paywalls, then points to the decline in viewership of the non-paywalled games to argue that it all ought to be paywalled because no one tuned in. Never consider the idea that making it harder to access means people don't get invested in the team and the sport.I used to watch a lot of hockey and college football, but as they kept filtering the games into sports tiers I either didn't get, couldn't get, or refused to pay insane amounts of money to access, I stopped. Guess what, I found other ways to spend that time.You don't make it the sport that the whole country follows by gatekeeping, you make it the country's sport by making it broadly accessible.
>>221191687Broadcasters are the problem in that they pay a lot for the rights to broadcast the sports and then have to make it profitable so put the games behind subscription tiers. Leagues are the problem in that they're happy to accept the money from broadcasters without putting restrictions such as certain games must be shown free-to-air. It may stifle long-term growth of fan bases and kids playing hockey but kids will find other sports to play. Both my kids are fairly involved in playing sports but they don't spend a lot of time watching professional sports. Maybe if they grew up watching hockey on TV they might have wanted to play hockey, instead they're doing volleyball and track, but it isn't like they watch those sports either.
>>221192093>NY JetsPathetic!
>>221190793Are they ending hockey on basic TV entirely or is it just the CBC broadcast? They used to simulcast HNIC on City TV stations, too. What happened is that Rogers (City TV's owner) bought the NHL rights for billions over a decade ago and gave CBC the ability to continue HNIC and run some playoff series in exchange for Rogers keeping all of the ad-revenue generated by those broadcasts. It was kind of a shitty deal on CBC's end, but what were they going to air instead? That tranny paki show? It's funny, the regional sports networks imploding in the U.S. has meant a lot of NHL teams now have free OTA broadcasters as their home station. The Golden Knights are unironically easier to watch in Vegas than the Leafs are in Toronto.
watch hockey, we have nice twinks!
Anything that upsets sportsball fags is a okay in my book
hockey fans are strange...
>>221194169So is he the goalie? Waterboy? Those are embarrassing.

>>221195164>It's funny, the regional sports networks imploding in the U.S. has meant a lot of NHL teams now have free OTA broadcasters as their home station.They're just going to get roped into league run streaming platforms. It's a shame because we have all these digital sub channels to make showing sports OTA even easier.

friendly reminder that most of the players in the nhl are canadian, and most of the players who win the cup are canadian. if rogers insists on monopolizing the leaf culture, eventually they will price out canadians, there will be less canadians trying to win the cup, less canadians getting into hockey as children, and less canadians watching hockey

Why does Canada even exist as a country anymore? They have no core identity or shared heritage anymore, it's just a place for thirdworlders to go and get handouts while the quality of life declines for productive citizens.
>>221200490Chinese or Mutt?
>>221200508I'm actually a white, old stock Canadian. My family arrived in Toronto over 150 years ago. I just think the country as it is now is pathetic.

>>221197668friendly reminder this is changing because you have been losing regularly in juniors to americans. canadian hockey is already dead, and were seeing it's last talents come into the sport now. I dont think this is a good thing, mind you, but as canadian white culture is replaced hockey will be too.
>>221201111Yeah sorry. The country was run by the Italians under Trudeau and previous PMs since 1963 so a lot of long standing policy was legitimately put in place to hurt White people and antagonize racial animosity in all colours and directions. We're working on it eh?

So who was supposed to hang him, Dementia Joe?
>>221201621What were you right about? You thought I believed Trudeau was still Prime Minister even though I referred to him as something he only became after he resigned. He was still Prime Minister when Trump started his 51st state trolling. Trudeau's "Canada is post-national" comment was one of the first things he said as a political leader. I found it funny that Trudeau's supporters had no issue with him saying Canada means nothing as anyone can be Canadian and then suddenly throwing fits when the orange man said Canadians might as well just be officially American. Culturally, English-speaking Canada is closer to the U.S. than anything unique to begin with.

>>221203289So you instead voted for the rootless cosmopolitan who will 100% abandon this country when it's convenient. I find the U.S. shit to be borderline insane. Trump is out of office in 2028, yet retards here are acting like there is no way Canada and the U.S. will have a normal relationship again. We literally share a border with one another and they've historically been our biggest trading partner. Countries in active wars eventually reconcile.>>221203354It was a conversation about declining Poppy sales. Cherry said part of the issue is that "new Canadians" obviously have no ties to WW2 and don't care. An elderly man speaking about the social dysfunction brought on by mass immigration was too much.

>>221204303it would be in the best interests of both (actual) Canadians and the US but unfortunately your increasing population of feral jeets means it'll probably not happen anytime soon
>>221204436Not exactly, all salaries are paid in USD since its the superior currency and that just wouldn't be fair. However, you get taxed according to the away game locations that you play in. When you're in America on a team like Florida that means that 41 games are going to be without state income tax (Which is a lot.) California has shitty taxes, but atleast you have the virtue of playing hockey in tropical, beautiful weather. What the fuck does Canada have?

>>221204529You're late. https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2026-dallas-h1b-housing-market/?embedded-checkout=true
>>221204529I'm not saying we don't also have jeets, but I think Canuckistan is way more jeeted than we are. Do we really want their jeets as well?
>>221204501>all salaries are paid in USDare they? didn't know but probably makes sense otherwise none of them would want to play in Canuckistan
>>221204613It is funny though. I listen to a bunch of hockey podcasts and a lot of the time older players will reminisce about when they signed. Theyre always like, "I got $150k.... AMERICAN!" Like they were getting paid in golden coins in a treasure chest or something
>>221204531>terminal cancerthey've suggested it to a disabled vet asking for a stairlift
>>221204613The players are unionized with a CBA. They are all paid in USD because that's what has been negotiated.
>>221204777Right, meaning theres no way in hell the NHLPA would allow players to suffer getting paid in CAD
>>221204798Yes, that's why it's been done like that for a very long time. Thank you for understanding.
>>221204831Okay? You've just reiterated what I said here>>221204501
>>221204501>What the fuck does Canada have? "Well, I'm getting taxed out the asshole but atleast I'm here in fuckin Manitoba!"there's a specific tax law for athletes that's designed to equalize it, but it ends up working like a rrsp (leaf equivalent of roth ira) and most players don't bother with it because it takes decades to deal withyou can pay similar amount of tax playing in canada, it just requires players to invest long term
>>221204937Thats pretty gay
>>221204864Are you retarded? Did you follow the chain of posts? Do you think everyone is arguing with you?
>>221193367it's the Canadian government's fault. tax rates are so retarded that nobody wants to play for a Canadian team because all their money will get wiped out to feed Indian migrants. meanwhile places like Nevada and Florida have no income tax so it's paradise. this extends to team owners too, in the US the teams get tax breaks and free arenas whereas in Canada they've got to foot the bill out of pocket.
>>221200490Canada is the northern wall protecting the US from would be attackers via an otherwise indefensible wasteland. And it's free. This stops being true as Canada becomes a global laughing stock of human rights violations and descends into lawlessness and starvation. It is quickly becoming a dangerous liability.
My geriatric mother has started watching sports at the age of 70. I think they like the sound of people talking since their lifetime of actions ensure no real people give a fuck about them.
>>221203354Rememberance day is fucked up. Literally 'remember if you disobey we will send you to die like we did your forefathers'. I'm only here because my grandfather was the perfect age to only be in the training camp when WW2 ended.Fuck kikes. Never again. We will start with your homes before you send a single soldier off to die.
>>221203900The last hockey game I watched Michael Jordan was still playing.
>>221204501>you get taxed according to where away games areThis is nonsense. Canadians are taxed based on where they live December 31st.
>>221204714I suggest it to 90% of posters.
