I only see 2 PHIL games for next week on BlackBear TV.   I think they are just getting them in.   Also Rebellion games this weekend.   I'm asking how can we get the logos updated.

Did the rebellion games work?

My son plays college AAU D3 at a rink that has a black bear junior league. Live Barn has been shut off and my sons team need to send them games weekly to be loaded into their black bear tv site. This is the only black bear TV rink they play out of (their home rink) the rink was forced to move to Black Bear and they can't have any other live stream, not even their college live streaming it w/announcers.  So kids lost their "internships" working for the club team. I reached out to Black bear TV and asked if they would. Minimally broadcast the club college games for free, to give back to the youth families who have paid them for years, their response "we are a paid streaming service". They are killing hockey and can't even take a suggestion to give them a little positive PR as they are being torn apart on social media. They only want money and have no interest in growing or supporting the sport.

So that's the whole problem, right? When a consumer has no choice in the matter, positive PR means nothing to the seller. Other than they aren't making money from it. So Black Bear couldn't care less about positive PR.

Doing his damnedest to be more destructive to Pittsburgh Hockey than David Morehouse was.

He's definitely killed things in Jersey, Hershey/Harrisburg and I'm sure a few other places.

People should be reaching out to their local state reps and ask questions about possible violations of anti-trust laws regarding monopolizing. I've already reached out to one who is a lifetime hockey person and they are having staff do some digging.

Anyone have any feedback so far? My son is playing in the Alpha Columbus Day Tournament and it looks like some of the games could be at either Palmer or Pittsburgh Ice Arena. Just trying to see if it is worth buying the games for family to watch. Most of the rinks he plays at are non Black Bear rink, so I would just hate to waste money for those couple games if it isn't very good.

If you aren't playing out of a black bear rink consistently, save your money.  The family doesn't need to watch every game.
