NHL scores your TV

We continue highlighting cool Beyond Media downloads, enabled by Beyond Media and the Beyond Media SDK…
Sports are a big thing here at SnapStream. It doesn’t really matter what sport it is, we’ll find a way to talk about it, argue about it, make predictions, and determine who knows more. From cricket to curling to football to our personal sports concoction, “Beyond Wiffle”, that we play everyday in the park across the street, we take our sports seriously.
That’s why when I saw “NHL Scores” it really hit home. It is perfect for the times when you just have to know the score, right now. If I’m on the couch here’s my situation: it takes too long to bring up scores on my phone, SportsCenter won’t cycle around to the game I’m interested in for another 30 minutes, and I really need to know who won last night in the playoffs. Now I have another option, and with a few clicks of my remote I have my answer.

Summary by team
I know many people are probably thinking, “It’s just the NHL, who cares?” (sorry to those of you that are actually hockey fans :)) Geoff Stewart, who wrote this plug-in, was nice enough to also give away the source code for NHL Scores. This means someone with a bit of time could create a plugin for NBA, MLB, or NFL scores with a minimal amount of work. I know nearly everyone around the office would love these possible expansions, and I’m sure that holds true for a significant chunk of all Beyond Media users.

As a long suffering member of the Leafs Nation - “Did you have to show a screenshot of that game”!
Why not show the game on April15 when the Leafs beat Ottawa 5-1 .
