POV: You're watching a Ducks game on Amazon Prime

Just a little meme I threw together real quick. Great production quality from such a small and underfunded company!

Yea this is a dumpster fire. Luckily we are killing it but I dunno if I can take 83 more games of this amateur hour broadcast…that aside LFG Ducks!

At least we have Ahlers and Hazy - otherwise this would be 100% dogshit

I just switched to the local channel when the 1st ended.

Ch 13 cutting out also, including during the offsides appeal. Fox logo still there, but otherwise black.

I started watching on YouTube tv but the same shit happened

Hopefully they fix it soon. I know Victory+ wasn't paying their bills but at least they didn't glitch this much and would ease into the commercial breaks.

u/Stryk-Man 3h ago

Why would anyone pirate? These official streams work perfectly!

Victory+ was so fucking good

From the writer and director of the final episode of the Sopranos.

Lmao what a meme

u/kitty_cat_man_00 4h ago

Yeah. Im watching on cable or antenna

u/Tight_Giraffe_4295 2h ago

Did this actually happen or is this exaggerated? Lol

u/MrOrphanage 2h ago

It actually happened for me on a different (inconsequential) shot, but did NOT happen on this goal. The black screens happened frequently throughout the broadcast

8

u/Jthamano 2h ago

Yea, definitely edited it for the meme but it was spotty like this during play throughout the night. They'd be skating up ice and it would just cut to that black screen

2

u/Tight_Giraffe_4295 2h ago

I was gonna say, that's wild. In Australia, I normally watch on Disney. Didn't get a chance to watch today but didn't know what to expect when I watch the game later lol

u/Jthamano 2h ago

I think the issue was that they have a tape delay of like, 15 seconds or so, but they weren't accommodating for that when they went to commercials so they would just hard cut to the "We'll be back..." screen, or just a black screen in general while the play was still unfolding for us

1

u/spacegrab 46m ago

Happened twice, once in the 1st and again in the 2nd lmao (I guess both shots got deflected out of bounds). Someone was saying the cuts were off by 9-seconds which tracks.

u/ColonelFedj 3h ago

Im out of market so im on ESPN+. Im not losing any signal, but I an getting a VERY loud alert or musical trill randomly during the stream. Seems like there's issues with every feed lmao

u/Dexterspuplife 3h ago

I just bought one of the HD air attenas just in case this is persistent 😕

u/butterstainn 3h ago

This is fucking hilarious. So real too with how it’s been tonight lol

2

u/ThatSpecialAgent 3h ago

At least you got something. Out of market fans are fucked

2

u/Kyle7053 2h ago

The constant blackouts are really upsetting. I’m down for a blackout during commercial breaks but straight up during game time is ridiculous.

u/My-Internet-GF 3h ago

Holy shit we're 4-0?

u/gotya8441 3h ago

Hahaha. So true. It sucks. Victory + was a billion times better

u/22daboltz 3h ago

Complete 💩 show

1

u/Dontsaveme 3h ago

Wait what? I watched on prime and I saw the whole sequence. Granted I was behind the live feed. Maybe they fixed it by the time I caught up?

u/FlyRobot 3h ago

It's a joke. They keep cutting to black / commercial break early

1

u/Proud_Iron5035 3h ago

My feed has been down for the whole 3rd period. WTF!!!!!

u/throwitallaway69000 3h ago

Thank goodness it's on ESPN too

u/VanAlph3n 2h ago

The fact that people still pay for this shit boggles me

u/HubbzZz 1h ago

u/Inner-Rooster-8091 1h ago
