Notes
Please note that this is not a way to view NHL Game's for free or anything like that. This addon simply allows someone with an active GCL Account to access games that they normally can online, through their XBMC.
In order to use GCL, please sign up at the following: https://gamecenter.nhl.com/nhlgc/secure/gclsignup

Changelog:
0.8.2
- Added setting to select a different CDN Server
0.8.1
- Show Score Notifications auto-off
- Display bug fix for miliary time
0.8.0
- Show Score Notifications
- Stale cookie fix
Notes: The Show Score Notifications feature alerts the user of any scoring changes of live games. It also checks what you are watching within XBMC and if it is a live game it will make sure not to show score updates or "spoilers" for that game. Once this feature is started it will continue to run until you a) Choose "Turn off Notifications" or b) you close XBMC. So you don't even have to be watching hockey to get score updates :-)
