video embedding

Hi!

I’ve been having this issue with certain videos on my wordpress site. I run a hockey blog covering my local team and game recaps is part of what I do. Luckily, YouTube provides the majority of good highlights necessary, which makes getting video easy for the most part. At times, however, the only place I can get a certain video is from the team website, or NHL.com. The problem with getting the videos from here is that I can’t just copy and paste the URL like you can with YouTube. I’ve tried getting the embed code from the video, but all I get from that is the text of the code showing up in what I write. So, is there a step that I’m missing in this? Or is there a good plugin that can solve this? I’ve tried a couple and haven’t gotten one that works yet. I appreciate the help! Thank you.
