Top sports bar projectors for watching the new NHL season

The 2017-2018 NHL season got underway in October and has already provided plenty of entertainment for hockey fans. There will be much more excitement to come as the 101st season moves towards the playoffs in April, followed by the Stanley Cup Final in June. That means there’s lots of games to watch and if you’re unable to see them in person, you need to decide how to follow the action!

You could stay at home to watch the games with your local TV provider, but there’s always a much more exciting atmosphere when taking in a match-up at a nearby sports bar. However, it has to be a sports bar that offers a large enough picture size and high quality definition to make you feel like you’re actually at the game. Otherwise you’ll be sitting there squinting along with everyone else trying to figure out where the puck is.

This means that most sports bar owners should consider finding the right projectors for displaying games from the new NHL season. Here’s a few suggestions.

Sony VPL-VZ1000ES

 
Hockey is a fast paced game where the action can shift from one end of the rink to the other in seconds, so a good frame rate is essential to make sure fans aren’t left feeling frustrated and confused. This 4K model has 60 frames a second video performance, so there won’t be any problems with stuttering movement from NHL stars. With 2500 lumens of brightness it should also be bright enough to give a clear picture in most sports bars where there isn’t very much ambient light.

BenQ X12000

 
Another projector with an impressive 4K picture quality is this BenQ model, which also makes sure that fans will be able to tell the teams apart thanks to its incredible 8.3 million distinct color pixels. That makes it practically cinema-quality and any sports bar that splashes out with it will be delivering an amazing service for its patrons. It offers slightly less brightness at 2200 lumens, but again this should be enough for most venues.

Epson BrightLink 536Wi Interactive WXGA 3LCD

 
If the venue in question is one where it is difficult to block out competing lights and the brightness of the models above isn’t enough to deliver the required clarity, you need something like this Epson model, which has good image quality without being 4K, but most importantly it offers 3,400 lumens which will ensure that it isn’t defeated by ambient light.
