NHL/CHL-NCAA-Eligibility Impacts Diamond Sports Group and Amazon have reached a deal that should make a lot of people happy in the Columbus Metro area. The deal that was announced will allow Amazon Prime Video to stream local FanDuel Network channels on its platform. The deal is a multiyear agreement and will be available on Prime as an add-on. Per a Sports Business Journal report, "Customers in each team’s designated geographic area will be able to purchase an add-on subscription on Prime Video to stream their team’s live games and pre-and post-game shows." The SBJ report also says, "A fan in any of those team’s designated geographic area would have to pay an undisclosed fee, above their regular Prime Video subscription, to watch the games. The add-on fee has yet to be released by Diamond." FanDuel also announced that they will offer an a la carte option on the app. With this option, fans can purchase single games for $6.99 each. This option will be available starting on December 5th. You can also pay $19.99 per month for the streaming service. One point of contention for fans all across the country who watched the NHL, NBA, and MLB on the Ballys app is that it hardly ever worked. Is this a workaround for that? I guess we'll find out. Anything that will make watching the NHL easier, we're all for it.
