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.

Watch live streaming NHL games online (US only)

Stream live NHL games on Comcast hockey live
There was certainly a lot of fanfare when Google announced that they were going to allow people around the world to watch in-season full-length games on Google Video.

Before you get too excited there are a couple of things to keep in mind. Local games are usually blacked out, and to watch the live streams you'll need a PC with Microsoft Windows Media Player 9.x or higher and IE 6+ or a similar generation browser. So Mac users are out of luck (shock).

Graveyard Shift - zombie-busting Time Waster

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
