NHL TV package settlement might feel like win for fans, but it's not even close

The NHL and a bevy of its local broadcasters quietly settled a class-action lawsuit last week, agreeing to provide a cheaper, single-team version of NHL GameCenter Live to fans who wish to only pay for access to games involving their favorite team.

The plaintiffs basically got all that they asked for in the settlement. The league will create a package that will be "at least twenty percent" cheaper than existing packages, but that package will only give the subscriber access to games from their one team of choice. Reuters has more of the sticky details.
