I'm Canadian, and hockey is in my blood. I've been on skates since I was before I remember.

Being from Toronto, I have my team.

For the last couple of years, I used an app on my phone that would alert me 15 minutes before my teams played (Toronto and Edmonton) so that I had an opportunity to set up recording on my PVR.

In the last two days, I had to refuse the changes in said app's T&S because they wanted info beyond what was needed, so I decided immediately to delete the app. I then of course had to figure out a way to write my own alert software.

I have. As I've done for a long time, I take a problem, and create a Perl solution to produce data from a source that is external. This is no different.

I already have prototype working software. My question is this:

If you're a hockey fan, is there anything specifically you'd want to look up? I already have it pegged as NHL::API, so your feedback will dictate the interface.

Thanks :)
