    That site is a waste of time. Non-stop videos starting all by themselves, and when I actually do want to watch one voluntarily, there is a 30 second commercial for an 18 second clip. Garbage.

    I do not like how it auto-starts a video from NHL gamecenter. I know they want to preview that option for people purchase it but the auto start kills me. There is probably an option to check off for it to not do this but I have not really looked around the site to much. At first glance I do not like the look.

    I still go to Yahoo, but hate it too -- but since I have leagues there, it's easiest.

    Looks brutal, and now it takes an extra mouse click to get to the box scores. Weak.

    agreed, I hate that more than almost anything, sites that auto-play videos when you hit the main page

    I don't mind the home page, but I agree with the auto-starts. I admire their attempts to stay ahead of the curve, but those big video boxes take an extra second to appear, so while my eyes are reading through the first line of the game summary...that line suddenly shoots down six inches and I have a seizure

    It's definitely a lot busier and too busy for me.. but the headlines on the right and the boxscores seem just as easily accessible to me. I just click on scores and don't bother with any scroll down menus...

    I absolutely hate the auto starts though. I can't stand that style of advertising. I also can't stand the 30 second adds for like 18 second clips and often the goal videos don't include replays... Come on, give us the replays...

    ESPN has a great looking site for checking box scores. All the stats available and easy to read. The only problem is that the NHL is buried way down the list of priorities however if you log-in and customize "my ESPN" or whatever it's called you can make the NHL #1.

    Good to know, thanks for this! I'll be switching immediately, that NHL site with all the auto-vids and such is way too slow and busy for me now. I just want to be able to quickly and easily check to complete game stats without all the distractions and clutter.
