Believe it or not, the NHL season is coming. The preseason is here, which means you might be looking for how to watch each game. Lucky for you, we’ve got you covered.
The NHL 2021-2022 national broadcast will now be under ESPN and Turner Sports. NBC has been broadcasting since 2005, so hockey fans will see games in a new way. In March 2021, a deal was signed between the NHL and ESPN for a seven-year multi-platform deal for half of the league’s media rights, with Turner Sports as a secondary partner.
ESPN will broadcast 75 regular season games and Turner will broadcast 72 regular season games on TBS and TNT. ESPN and ABC will have 25 national regular season games and exclusive rights to the opening night, the All-Star Game and other “special events.”
Here’s a rundown of the full preseason broadcast schedule:
