I occasionally watch the Ranger playoff games and trying to find what channel it's on is like playing hide and seek

 What is really annoying is the NHL's streaming blackout rules. I tried to legally watch the first round online and found out that any game shown on a regional network is completely blacked out online. They force me to decide between going to a bar or stealing their excrement. I'm lazy and cheap so the choice was easy.

freak them steal it. The games are on either NBCSN, CNBC, or USA. Occasionally it will be on regular NBC.

They didn't give you any choice.  It's not stealing if you have a legal way of watching it that simply isn't feasible.  I tried to use the NBCSN app to watch the game, since I subscribe to the channel, and it told me I wasn't a subscriber.  I missed 20 minutes of the Rangers game because I didn't have another option.  I'd have streamed it if I could.  Came home, turned on the TV to the freaking channel I subscribe to, and caught the rest.

That sucks, I have never had any problems with the NBCSN app when they aren't blacking out the game on me. Luckily during the first round when all the games were on regional sports networks someone was streaming the games on a youtube live channel so I was able to watch the games in good quality anyway.

It'll probably be like a KISS farewell tour.  Say they are cancelled, then back by popular demand.  Wash, rinse, repeat.

I could see that happening since they announced it was canceled after next year. Get enough people to watch out of nostalgia next year and they are rolling.

I didn't even know it was still running. I thought there was another one that replaced it.
