The Southern Ontario/WNY Radio-TV Forum / Watching NHL Games This Season May Be More Complicated Than You Think

It used to be easy figuring out who was showing what game and when. But as Rogers' mega-billion dollar deal for the exclusive NHL rights nears an expiry date, you may not be able to follow your favourite team quite as easily as you did in the past decade.

"To watch NHL games this season, you will need to subscribe to Sportsnet, TSN, TVA and Amazon Prime.

Depending on the night, the games will air on one of those streaming services — and fans will have to check local listings to see where their favourite team is playing on any given night."

It is actually pretty simple if you want access to all the non national telecast games. Simply subscribe to Sportnet+ It is basically Sunday Ticket for the NHL. Ideal for Hab fans who don't live in Quebec/Eastern Ontario or Leaf fans who reside outside of the balance of Ontario. Not cheap though. I think it runs around $250/yr. Sportsnet usually opens up a two week free trial at the beginning of the season.

I believe that is the Rogers motto.
