It's a blessing in disguise for me.  My kid is performing in a concert tomorrow, I have other family obligations, and the Bills game is on.  It's not a day where I can realistically commit a couple of hours to watch a mid-season hockey game.  That said, I know that if it was on ESPN+/TNT/etc. and I had access to it, I would find a way to watch it and would come off as a sports-obsessed a-hole to the wife, kids, and others (and they'd be correct).  This way, I just know I don't have access and won't feel the pull to try and watch it.

That said, I might be able to stream the WGR radio broadcast through my phone into earbuds....

Anybody know how long it takes for the game to rebroadcast onto Espn plus? I've already used up all my free trials and would rather watch in the evening than in the morning anyway. I'm pretty sure the games that are played on espn plus don't take long but thought  games on tnt and nhl network took a bit longer.

I don't have NHL Network, so I had written this one off as one I would not get to see. I didn't know that ESPN plus rebroadcasts games that were earlier shown on NHL Network. If someone could confirm that they do, I  would appreciate it. If they do, I might watch the game tonight late and will try to avoid spoilers all day.  That said, if it's not going to be rebroadcast later, I'd rather not put myself through gymnastics of avoiding seeing the score all day.

This has to be fun for you, having evening games today and Monday instead of the middle of the night!

Usually 48 hours.

I just finished watching the game. They either posted it late last night (mst) or earlier today. My biggest complaint is when searching for the game, espn+ will have links to highlights  that subtly give away the winner of the game in the titles. They didn't tell me who won, but I assumed it was the Wild as there was a highlight link for a Zuccarello goal.
