Regional Sports Networks (RSNs) & Local Blackouts
In-market games (where you live in the same geographic region as your favorite team) are tied to local regional networks. In the US, major carriers include FanDuel Sports Network (formerly Bally Sports), NBC Sports Regional, YES/MSG Network, NESN, and Monumental Sports Network.
If you reside within an in-market footprint, ESPN+ streams are subject to blackout restrictions. To follow local games, cord-cutters utilize direct team apps (such as NESN 360, Monumental+, or YES App) or watch community stream listings on NHLBite.
International Hockey Fans (Outside US & Canada)
Fans in the UK, Europe, Australia, and worldwide can access games via NHL.tv, Premier Sports, Viaplay, or DAZN depending on local country licensing agreements.
