I live in Leafs region and last I checked I think you have to be subscribed to three different premium cable channels to watch all 82 Leafs games.
Similarly frustrating is trying to follow tennis in Canada. There is no comprehensive tennis streaming option, the ATP and WTA use separate apps that each have a $20/month subscription, and do not have rights to show any major tournaments. So for four months out of the year, you’re actually paying $20 for two weeks of tennis coverage, and you also need to pay for TSN streaming if you want to watch the biggest tournaments. All this adds up to $60+tax/month to follow _one_ sport!
I really enjoyed the TennisTV app in the US, but this year they updated it and added a bunch of 'features' and now its slow and ugly and the logo is big. It still 'works' but it's not nearly as good as it used to be. My biggest gripe with tennis coverage is exactly what you are saying where the Tennis app doesn't stream the grand slams. I couldn't even figure out how to watch the French Open. I was too afraid to purchase the wrong streaming option. Was it Peacock? Or TennisChannel App? Or something else? I have regular nbc. ESPN streams the other slams, but they stuff matches with commercials and it completely ruins the viewing experience if you are coming from TennisTV.
Last US Open ESPN would play the same Home Depot commercial over and over and the first part of the commercial is someone using a circular saw. I have a massive phobia to saws and I couldn't change the stream fast enough to not see it in the commercial so I inevitably gave up. I'm a massive tennis fan, but I rarely watch the grand slams. .
The worst part of all this though is that there is a TennisTV App for the men's and a TennisChannel App for the women's. It's unbearable. Tennis coverage is broken. mdm_ you are not alone on this one.
