Maybe, but no live local hockey on internet = cable TV subscription
We literally switched cable providers from Frontier FiOS (100% reliable) to Spectrum broadband (100% shit) because Frontier dropped the contract for our local hockey games
Just an FYI (I'm sure you know this, but just in case you don't :-) ) ...
if you have a VPN you can subscribe to NHL Center Ice and watch your Lightning games using that ... just choose a server that is not in your broadcasting area. I did the same with the MLB package many years ago. You don't save that much cash and there is certainly a convenience factor, but it sure does beat having to subscribe to a tier of a cable package that has a ton of woke channels lumped in with sports.
I wish I was still into hockey, but until things are straightened out worldwide, I am not following any sports. I cannot fund these pricks anymore. I am not casting any kind of judgement on you ... you're free to spend your money any way you see fit :-). I remember when the Penguins won back-to-back cups in '91 - '92 ... those were some good times :-).
On a side note, I'd love to see the Rays win the World Series this year :-) ... anything that makes the Pittsburgh Pirates look more pathetic is awesome!!! :-) . The Pirates owner is a glorified corporate welfare recipient and actively looks for ways to not pay talent to stick around. It is disgusting. That pile of shit team screws taxpayers over thanks to their stupid "stadium deal" that seemed to only benefit the Pirates. You'd think the least the cheap prick would do is fund a team that has enough pieces in place to win, but the fucker won't even do that (see 2013-2015 as an example ... seems like the Rays aren't doing that cheapskate nonsense this year)!
We were done with sports after the NHL strike somewhere after the '91 & '92 wins. Tom Barrasso shot his mouth off about needing more money and too bad if the fans don't understand that.

Penguins fan here too, but haven't really followed them in the past couple seasons, life got busier after having a kid.

Our son grew up playing hockey and still plays today. My husband wouldn't be tolerable if we took hockey away!
I would be a whole lot worse than intolerable, that I can tell you.

EDIT: LOL @ someone needing to downvote this
