Pretty much title. I haven't had cable in a decade, and I'm not really a sports person, so I'd really rather not have to sign up for some sports streaming package, but I do kinda like watching Avs games. A friend asked me why I didn't just get an antenna to watch the games, but the broadcast TV page on the Denver Post doesn't look like they actually carry Avs games. Just wondering if I missed something.

Sportsurge.net if you have decent Internet.

Yeah I've done the whole ripped streams thing. It's just the ads and spam and attempts to install crypto miners on my machine make the experience unenjoyable.

Just need uBlock Origin or Adguard extensions in your browser to block those. But, I get it. Those sites are cancer without some form of an adblocker

This doesn’t help you but may help others, ESPN+ has a majority of avs games on it. But many are blacked out for the Denver area.

Nope. You need Altitude to get almost all of them. The ones that are nationally broadcast are usually blacked out in Colorado.

To get Altitude you need a Fubo subscription.

As far as I know, if it’s not a nationally televised game, Avs games are only on Altitude Sports, which requires a cable/satellite subscription

Even then, it’s only on Directv, Fubo, and Charter in some states.

Altitude wasn’t able to reach a deal with Comcast to have it on Xfninity, or the other majors like YoutubeTV and Hulu.
