    Nice! I was thinking about doing something like this but for cycling, however one of the biggest PIA about building products for sports is all the gating of data.Does the NHL really provide an API for all games? That's nice...

    Do the endpoints still work?https://api-web.nhle.com/v1Keeping upto date endpoints for sport scores is the most difficult challenge.

    Link to the API Client is incorrect at the bottom: https://github.com/nhl-stats-api-client instead of https://github.com/liahimratman/nhl-api-client

    It's like the reinvention of Teletext

    nIce! Does it have player in-game stats like TOI and +/-?This reminds me of that f1 tui… https://github.com/JustAman62/undercut-f1 or https://github.com/IAmTomShaw/f1-race-replay. The one I’m thinking of syncs with kodi for delayed playback “live” stats.

    Nice, I've now created dozens of little personal tools like this now :-)This is IMHO the killer AI feature for personal use. So many utlities I never would have spent time on are now within reach. Even just non-trivial bashrc aliases and functions

    > Acknowledgments - This project was inspired by Playball, a similar terminal application for following MLB baseball games.Should've gone for something generalized that could handle a bunch of different games, instead of just another sport, so someone caring about multiple sports don't need multiple TUIs :)

    Nice! In practice, how far behind the TV broadcast does it end up being?

    Wicked. Who is your team?

    What next? Perhaps a small scripting language to run on the side of the terminal?You know, just to make some simple automations possible, nothing super-special.
