Good news, everyone! The AHL has announced its broadcast plans for the Calder Cup, and not only will several games be aired on SiriusXM, but the entire series will be streamed online, free of charge, at AHL Live.
To use your computer to watch on AHL Live, visit AHLLive.com and either use your AHL Live account or create a new one. Select the Finals All-Access Pass and enter promotional code CALDERCUP to begin watching. If you’d like to stream the games on your phone or tablet, download the AHL Live app from iTunes or Google Play.
Games 2, 4 and 6 will be broadcast on SiriusXM, and should there be no conflict with the Stanley Cup Final, so will Games 5 and 7.
Stock up on snacks and beverages; I’ll host game threads that will have links to the live game streams. As long as it doesn’t detract from covering the game, I’ll also host a live game blog similar to those of preseason games that feature continuous updates and commentary. KingsVision is also making the trip east, so we’ll have practice and morning skate videos as well.
