I really wish Netflix would pursue live streaming sports, they certainly seem the most apt for the job. A significant challenge is not necessarily live streaming the game, but the production. Most of the productions are ran by regional or national TV cable. They certainly don't want to encourage moving off of cable. Rogers (i.e., Sportsnet), who own exclusive NHL broadcasting rights in Canada (with exception to a few NHL clubs and some regional restrictions), are running NHL's Game Center Live in Canada. I don't know if the technology/provider of live stream is the same as the american version (non-Sportsnet) but because they own all national rights, there are no blackouts. The U.S., version of GameCenter Live is pretty restrictive to geoblocking. I don't think the roadblocks are in the licensing agreements that are preventing widespread live streaming. http://www.broadstreethockey.com/2015/8/4/9094733/its-time-for-the-nhl-to-get-rid-of-tv-blackouts http://www.broadstreethockey.com/2015/8/4/9094733/its-time-f...
