NHL Live Ticker

Live scores, game-day reliable

Live scores and stats ticker with API integration and WebSockets for real-time updates. Built for low latency and reliability during game days.

Challenge

The client needed a live NHL scores and stats experience that could handle traffic spikes on game days without going down or falling behind. Their previous solution was brittle and often lagged during key moments.

Solution

We built a Next.js ticker that consumes official feeds via API and WebSockets, with caching and fallbacks so users always see current scores. We load-tested for peak game-day traffic and tuned for low latency and stability.

Results

  • Reliable real-time scores and stats during peak events
  • No unplanned downtime through a full season
  • Fast, consistent updates that keep pace with broadcast
“Game days used to be a nerve-wracking time. Now the ticker just works.”
