Winter Olympics live on NHL Gamecenter??

Paco Rodriguez

Hi guys

I notice that nhl gamecenter have games advertised on the dates that the winter olympic hockey games are on.

They dont say what games are being shown. Are these the Winter Olympics games???
Or maybe they are only the slots for the cancelled NHL games.

BBC and Eurosport well be showing the games. I can't see NHL showing none NHL games

I looked at those unnamed fixtures again and they are the same times as the olympic games so it is looking good!

Hey guys, going to get NHL Gamecenter for the remainder of the season, 40 odd quid. seems good value.

Are there any caveats I should be aware of living in Ireland?

Yep, games that are broadcast here on Setanta etc will be blocked.

Guys, got Game Centre.
In the few days I've had it I've noticed it can be slow when viewing highlights and live feeds can up to 10 seconds or more behind picture.
Anyone exp this?
My set up is pretty new and broadband decent.

I use game centre on my ipad and its perfect. Its stutters and stops sometimes on my iphone.

Yeah, on iPad myself.

Annoying that it falls behind.

I don't have access to the red button feature of BBC, so I'm looking to use the BBC Iplayer, but as far as I can see they don't seem to have all the action live on Iplayer - just selected delayed highlights?

Has anyone else found this?

I was watching the Swe-Swi game yesterday and they never came back to the match for the 3rd period

I assume they are showing US v Russia at 12:30 today ?

**BBC (TV) I guess is the only option ? BBC iPLayer is UK only.

Slovakia and Slovenia is on now on the red button.

It does say on the BBC site it is in at 12:30. There making a big deal of the game chase of the miracle game in the 80s
