It will be exciting to watch which of the 32 NHL teams will win their divisions and advance to the playoffs for a shot at winning the Stanley Cup as the 2025–26 season gets underway. This season, ESPN, ABC, and ESPN2 will all broadcast the Stanley Cup Finals, and ESPN Unlimited will provide livestreaming.
Four networks—ESPN, ABC, TNT, and NHL Network—as well as streaming services like ESPN Unlimited and HBO Max broadcast NHL games during the regular season. There are several ways to watch games online if you want to.
Fortunately, you won’t have to miss any of the excitement this season even if you don’t have cable. With one of these many reasonably priced TV antennas, you may watch out-of-market games on your TV. Additionally, all NHL games are streamed online on a number of platforms, including DirecTV, Fubo, Sling TV, Hulu + Live TV, and others. You may livestream NHL games online for free with the free trials that are available on all of these services (Sling excluded).
