Will you be paying for content access? If so - and providing you're in the USA or any other country where NHL have not sold internet broadcast rights to other broadcasters ( like they have in Scandinavia), you can download the NHL Gamecenter App, and use that to watch content. For most games you can select the MSG feed. Note that geo-blackouts could possibly apply. As for illegal streams, they always show up around game time, but aren't guaranteed to work on your iPad.
You will need an existing Internet connection to be able to use Apple TV. Full requirements. How fast your connection needs to be, depends on the content you're trying to view. Last year The NHL GCL supported the ranges 300 kbps - 3 mbps. I would reccomend that your connection is at least 5mbps down if you plan on streaming high quality content.
Using S-Video, VGA or HDMI cables from Apple you can connect your iPad to the TV. Similar solutions are available for Samsung Galaxy Tab and other tablets.

Gamecenter is not free. You have to buy a subscription. If you want to stream to your TV get apple TV and then you can control via airplay on your Ipad.

do i need anything else, i only have ipad and no other connection via internet, is all i need a ipad and apple tv, i have no wifi
No you don't. I had it on my iPhone/iPad before I jailbroke them. But the jailbreak tweaks on Cydia, even though I don't use them, are much better than Skyfire. I remember it lagged a lot.

3. Gamecenter requires a subscription, as someone already pointed out.
4. Since you have an Apple TV as well, it supports airplay with the iPad, although wifi is required. I'm not sure if Gamecenter specifically supports this, although I am HIGHLY doubting it does, since I plugged my laptop to the TV once and it said that I had to disconnect the external monitor in order to continue watching the game. Could be wrong though. If that doesn't work, you can get the Apple Digital AV Adapter and connect an HDMI cable from your iPad to your TV this way. Now-the tricky thing is that this cable is $50, and Apple has specifically made it impossible to use some cheap cable from China to do the job. It simply does not work. In order to get around this, you must jailbreak your iPad, and get Resupported on the Cydia store, which removes this configuration. Display-Out is another tweak from Cydia that would be used. Overall, this comes out to be WAY cheaper that $50. However, all new iPads are running some version of ios6 at this point, and there is no jailbreak for this so far, as Apple has added more security measures than ever before.
5. Not if you're on a wifi network. If you're planning to pay monthly for 3G/4G service, there are usually limits. Even with an unlimited iPhone plan from ATT for example, they still warned me that if I went over 3GB in a month again, they would slow my connection speeds.
I'm in a similar situation. I used to have a mytouch 4g and had no problems whatsoever watching streams.
I upgraded to a Galaxy S3 thinking I'd be able to do the same only to find out later it doesn't support flash?! Are you kidding me?
I was under the impression that was just an issue with Apple and Flash. So I avoided the iPhone.
How can I watch the streams now? Any help would be appreciated!
Adobe is no longer supporting Flash on Android devices running Jelly Bean or higher. Your new S3 should be running Ice Cream Sandwich, which means you're still supported. You should still be able to download Flash from the Play Store, if your device didn't already come with it.
Even if you upgrade to JB, there are still plenty of ways to sideload Flash onto your device. I'm running JB on my S3 and Flash still works flawlessly. If you can't figure it out through Google, PM me and I'll help you get setup.
Either way, mobile Flash is on its way out. Apple never supported flash and Android and Windows Mobile phones and tablets are phasing it out.

any good free apps you guys know about that has good streaming off live sports/shows
I'm sure there are some free apps out there but quality wise and connectivity wise, they may just end up stressing you out.
I sell this stuff all the time. Your router is just as important as anything else. Get a good router and you should be in good shape as far as less buffering (pausing to load) goes. I have and recommend apple's airport extreme. Works great in the two story house i have. I would then get (if you don't have already) the apple tv, which I also have. Hook it up to your tv with an HDMI then connect to your network/router. After that I would just pay the $20/month for gamecenter, which I also do. I had tried the free sites in the past and the quality just was never that good. I finally caved and signed up for gamecenter. You get all the games, options for either team's broadcast, you can watch the game about an hour or two after it ended on apple tv if you missed it (like a cable box dvr), and the picture quality is pretty damn good.
Obviously hardwiring the router to the appletv with ethernet is always the best connectivity but if not feasible your devices will still work.
