U.S. viewing guide

NHL Games on TV This Week

The TV column keeps available channel information beside each matchup, so you do not need to cross-reference a separate list.

Find the Channel Beside Each Game

Look across the same row as the matchup and puck-drop time. “TBA” means the schedule data does not yet include a confirmed TV assignment.

National and Regional Coverage

The NHL lists ESPN/ABC and TNT Sports as U.S. national partners for 2026-27. Regional and out-of-market availability can still vary by team and location.

Recheck Listings Before the Game

Broadcast details and start times can change. Confirm them with your local provider or the official NHL viewing guide.

Broadcast partner information checked against the official 2026-27 NHL schedule announcement.
