I'd like to really thank SNP for consistently blacking out games. Like really, they show Edmonton as Dallas but the next night blacking it out for Calgary vs Dallas.

I've canceled my subscription and have gone old school and started listening to the games on the radio. Wow, it brings me back to my childhood and have really enjoyed just chilling and listening to a game for free. Thanks Sportsnet Pacific, bye...

You guys pump everybody else’s tires, other than the leafs I understand you can’t be biased, but for God sake, you guys record in Toronto

Stop you guys do it always you pump everybody elses tires especially Edmonton you give them all the love and Ottawa always why cant you be like TSN who evaluates the leafs as a club good or bad? Im just tired of you guys. I think you guys are god awful.

Paid for Sportsnet but can get access

Updated by user Apr 25, 2025

Terrible service, took my money last Sunday April 20 from my Visa and I missed 5 of the playoff games so far 2 for Montreal and 3 for Toronto and all I get when I try to log on is you need to subscribe. So frustrating, can’t even cancel my account because they can’t find me, were able to find me when I paid. Will never recommend Sportsnet

Original review Apr 23, 2025

What a piece of *** streaming app

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Freezes, buffers, skips, sound goes off after every return from commercial . Sometimes kicks me off altogether.

Its complete garbage.

I have no problem with any other streaming app. So *** angry!

User's recommendation: Avoid this *** app if you can. Don’t support their *** service

Watching the Leafs game April 2nd. SN has the best commentators, but you can’t hear them over the crowd/music noise. I can’t afford the games, used to think the tv experience was better. Not anymore

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Whatever you changed on the microphones, undo it. The TV experience is now, for this game, the worst I've ever heard.

Final 4 March Madness woman’s basketball and it’s not even mentioned in the show?Im a hockey fan too but I love March madness as well. I can’t watch if they cover this as well.

As a father of a daughter who played University basketball in Canada, its very disappointing that after the Final 4 Womans games that it wasnt even mentioned in the show. We have girls in Canada that want to play at the highest level and are playing in the WMBA.

In case you didnt know, we have a WMBA team coming to Toronto next year and these ladies deserve their coverage too. Some great storylines with these incredible women and future dreams but who would know if you dont give them 30 seconds on a show.

Open your eyes! Im looking forward to not watching your show like I have been for years every day.

Preferred solution: I would like to see just a hint of coverage for a very popular sport like woman’s college basketball- 30 minute show never mentions Final 4 Woman’s game results? Crazy

User's recommendation: Don’t watch- they don’t support everyone: female athletes especially

It sounds like you need to access parental control on your remote and block the channel from even appearing.

Pissed at Commentator

Caleb Joseph blamed Alejandro Kirk for Gausman's poor performance against the Yankees in game 1 of the April 27 doubleheader. He should make a formal apology as his own career was lack luster to say the least.

He couldn't carry Kirk's equipment bag. Get rid of him!!

Cancelled and blocked NHL games

System reboots. WWE is no longer available, but no refund is offered. NHL blacked out games, which buying the + was to eliminate.

Event Coverage

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Turned to SN the other day and saw the opening ceremonies to the Special Olympic, was so impressed I said to myself, "I have to watch the games, haven't seen them in years." Then I heard them say 'Recap of this coverage will be April 9th', ok, odd but?? Have been looking for live coverage ever since, lo and behold there is none. Disrespectful to all involved, especially to the athletes.

Preferred solution: Proper coverage of events that are important to everyone.

Resolved: Customer service issue

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

They have charged me double every month for no reason.

After I brought that up instead of paying back the money they cancelled my account and now I'm out even more money.

There is no phone number everything is done through email and the service really hasn't been that good. I would say around a 4/10 at every best.

This is a shame because outside of the billing sportsnet has been very good for watching oiler games and the 4 nations tournament.

Announcers

You need to get more announcers like Kate Beirness (I hope I spelled her name right). Most of the other female announcers sound dumb & are either old or ugly.

The guys mostly sound dumb.

I have gotten to the point that I just turn the sound off till they are finished. Get Kate Beirness to teach your new announcers how to report the sports news.

False Claims

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Claimed to offer streaming NHL games when in reality 70% of them are blacked out. And won't offer a refund when cancelling the subscription.

They say "all sales final". They charge more than TSN.

Save your money. Rogers is misleading.
