How to Watch NHL
without guessing the stack
NHL is a two-front watch plan: local rights plus TNT/Max.
ABC, ESPN, TNT, and Max drive the national side while your local team still pushes the in-market price.
Out-of-market fans often end up in a cleaner setup because ESPN+ absorbs a lot of the national burden.

Local-market wrinkle
Teams with a clean direct-to-consumer option look very different from teams still locked behind a live-TV bundle.
How we checked the math
Last reviewed
- League averages put every tracked NHL team on the same monthly-cost basis.
- Team pages stay separate because local rights and regional-sports access create most of the swing.
- Use the calculator when your ZIP code or team mix changes the answer.
