Where to watch the Stanley Cup finals online
Not everyone has jumped on the streaming video bandwagon yet, so finding a good place to watch a big event can still be a little tricky. Say, for example, the 2009 Stanley Cup finals.
If you're a Red Wings or Penguins fan and might end up stuck behind a computer, here are a few places you might be able to catch the games. There's not a ton of information on official sites (*cough* NHL *cough*) about streaming plans, so hopefully these four sites will come through
CBC Sports - This one's certain. In their post about Cup finals coverage, CBC announced that all games will be streamed online. This might be a reverse Hulu - US users will likely be unable to access the feed.
Hulu - US users, tune in to Hulu - they carried a good portion of round three, so they may run some finals coverage as well.
MyP2P.eu and ChannelSurfing.Net - Quality might not always be the best, but it's better than missing out. Posts in the forums indicate that there will be users sharing video feeds during the finals.
