Any chance someone has found an endpoint for the American Hockey League (AHL)?

Is it possible to get live scoring of an actual NFL playoff game for fantasy stats? We do our fantasy playoffs during the actual playoffs and we have been calculated scores by hand, but would love to be able to just connect this API to a google sheet and then create formulas to get our scores. We would use the following score types from the fantasy section.

@tdart5 - i threw a bunch of stuff together but i hope something helps

As far as I can tell, this url "https://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/{sport}/leagues/{espn_league}/events/{espn_event_id}/competitions/{espn_event_id}/competitors/{espn_team_id}/roster"
doesn't work for college-football. For example:
https://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/college-football/events/%7Bespn_event_id%7D/competitions/401628322/competitors/57/roster
This url is a game between florida and uMiami. The team_id is for Florida. The url doesn't work and returns:
{"error":{"message":"Bad event id: '{espn_event_id}' or league 'college-football' not allowed","code":400}}

@adamruehle Read the error message, you have a typo in your url (passing '{espn_event_id}' as the first event id in the url:
sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/football/leagues/college-football/events/%7Bespn_event_id%7D/competitions/401628322/competitors/57/roster

Should be:
