Only reason I stopped pirating hockey streams was because I was able to piggy back on my in laws shaw cable account to access sportsnet live. If I didn’t have access to that I would 100% pirate because just getting a legit sportsnet live account without a cable subscription doesn’t even give me access to my local teams games without also using a VPN. Fuck them and their bullshit blackouts.
