NHL channels like MLB?

Just curious if it was possible to use NHL.tv as a source like MLB... I know NBA is protected so it's not possible but just curious if this has been worked on? Also, curious about the streaming for NFL Sunday Ticket when that is available through directv... I'm not holding my breath on that one as I'm betting the NFL locks that down.

NHL.tv is dead after this season, the games are all moving to ESPN plus.

Isn’t ESPN+ more like an on-demand thing and not a 24/7 channel with linear content? Channels needs the latter.

Well MLB.TV is "on demand" as well. But there is this project I stumbled upon. Still very buggy

I did try it with some success but some bugs. I might try and fork it or create a pull request and kind of mimic what the MLB.TV as just do the NHL part of ESPN+.

Wow, good find! Very interesting indeed.

Anyone get this ESPN+ thing working? in the docker script there is no channel start option (which is fine I guess I can make it work) but it's telling me my credentials are invalid... I checked, they are not... just curious if anyone got it working...

Thanks for mentioning ESPN+ project! Tried it out on windows docker and getting it to play video was hit or miss. Seems very promising though.
