Beyond awesome - 10-10-08

This is the NHL Gamecenter Live package we just ordered today. That's a replay of Buffalo's Thomas Vanek scoring against Montreal's Carey Price on our desktop. As soon as we stop hyperventilating over the awesomeness of being able to watch the equivalent of our old Center Ice package at our office desk, we'll post more details.

Seth,

I got the new Game Centre Live as well -- and even though I'll have to settle missing the sevenish Pens games that are on versus -- it's so worth it to be able to watch them in KY!! (Not to mention watching other teams as well... Currently I'm watching the Caps & Thrashers)

It's a great system!

Ali,

How did you get the Thrashers game? I'm blacked out. That seems like a great game. 4-4 in the third.

You're probably to close to the Caps feed... I know that when I'm at home in PA I get it on MASN...

I'm pretty sure I won't be blacked out because of my region ever... haha.

It does seem pretty cool. The best thing is that you can listen to the radio broadcast whilst watching i.e. Mike Lange back on TV broadcasts! Seth, will I get to watch all Pens games on this package from Oz or will they be blacked out?

I just watched the end of Thrashers/Capitals on the free trial of Center Ice that we Comcast customers are getting this week. (7-4 Thrashers win in a game that involved several former Penguins.) I wonder why you were blacked out... maybe it's a conspiracy against you by Ted Leonsis?

Ali, Dang. That seemed like a fun game to watch.

AFP, I would assume you should be able to get it. According to the disclaimer page, it's available anywhere except Europe and the Middle East.

You may want to call the customer service line to make sure though (1-866-210-6349).

A few Pens games might be blacked out if they're on Versus or NBC, etc.

Lauren, Ted Leonsis is certainly no fan of mine.
