How to watch

4K is no problem for the Chromecast with Google TV; give it a 25 Mbps connection and a 4K TV and the sharper feeds hold up. For hockey, frame rate matters as much as resolution. You pay once for the plan length you choose; nothing renews on its own, and you have 7 days to ask for a refund.

Chromecast with Google TV settings for hockey

Android TV devices vary, so look for a match-frame-rate option in the display settings or inside the player; TiviMate, for one, has an auto frame rate switch. With it on, a small black puck changing direction faster than the camera can pan keeps its natural cadence.

  • Intermissions are the time to switch feeds if the picture isn't sharp.
  • Overtime runs past the guide slot; if you record games, add padding to the end time.
  • Hockey is where frame rate shows: choose a 60fps feed when your player offers one.
  • Turn down heavy motion smoothing on the TV; it can leave halos around the puck.
