Any Facebook live streams of 2020 Scotties?

I don't follow most of the curling teams on Facebook, but I do know that some of them livestream their games on the internet. Low production, the usual stationary camera/phone, only crowd commentary, etc.

Does anyone know if any of the teams are doing that this year?

As you know, people complaint about only seeing the same few teams on TSN, so who knows maybe some teams are livestreaming on the internet.

I looked but haven't seen any. I did catch some in various WCT (Walker, Skrilik and others streamed) during the season and ah, some of the conversations I overheard were interesting to say in the least.

I'm pretty sure that live streaming the Scotties would be illegal since a TV network is paying for rights to broadcast it. This isn't a random WCT event with no coverage, this is a major event that TSN pays Curl Canada to broadcast. They wouldn't look too fondly on a team live streaming the event.

It's interesting to me too. Maybe someone knows about it?

I suspect this is spot on. Big question for me is there any chance that the games will be streamed in the US as has been the case on some occasions in the past.

PEI Scotties start Jan 29th unless cancelled. Team Birt usually streams their games with I-phones.
