NHL Command Line over IM

[ General ]

This is very cool. A friend at Navantis passed me this, I believe they built it. It’s a messenger bot for the NHL. Just add the contact nhlstats@hotmail.com to your contact list and then start chatting. This is going to put a serious dent in my tsn.ca visits.

Feature request? Get this thing to find video links for me. It’d be amazing if I could just say “find video highlights for last night’s toronto game”, or “find video for wade belak and cam jannsen” and have a link returned to a video.
