    Thought you guys would be interested in this.

    I had heard about this from a coworker today and I just got home and checked it out, unfortunately my cable company isn't on the ESPN3 participating providers list so that kinda blows for me, but anyway you can check here to see if your provider is listed http://espn.go.com/espn3/xboxproviders


    & I'm guessing you can watch online regardless of providers here http://espn.go.com/watchespn/sitemap/_/sport/hockey/league/khl

    That's pretty cool, Good on them too for skipping the NHL.

    Hockey has to be the only sport where the players have "other" options to play during a work stoppage. I mean where would NBA, NFL & MLB players play in another league?

    thats probably why they're in no rush to get a deal done

    More than half of them are paying more for their own insurance than they get in salary from the european team they play for.
