KHL Coverage in North America and Europe

[SupremeNachos]

Looks like ESPN+ has pulled its coverage of the KHL Playoffs, I no longer see the games on their schedule.

Disney cut off Russia from all their stuff earlier

I couldn't actually find the livestreams on Portable.TV. Did anyone else get anything to work?

Portable with a VPN works. Great playoffs so far, except for the Minsk game.

2 tight games on now, great action so far!
Barys is surprisingly competitive so far

Where do you set the VPN to? The only playoff coverage I see on the App is highlights of the first Metalurg v Barys match. Am I missing something?

El Salvador, if that doesn't work switch to onhockey website.

Hmm, whatever I set the VPN to I see no On-demand playoff games and get no live streams. All I see is what I screenshot above.' The result is the same whether I am using a web browser or the Portable TV App.

With ESPN ceasing coverage of the KHL and Portable.TV shutting down, I'm wondering if KHL TV works in the USA? I have NordVPN but I know some streaming services detect such things.

Does not work without VPN. My workaround was camping in Mexico to purchase via Apple(might not work right now) then logging in on my computer.

Using a VPN and setting my location as Serbia I have been able to watch many of the playoff games on the Russian network Match TV.

 

[TheWhiskeyThief]

In USA, can purchase/watch games on KHL app without VPN.

Just bought a game, currently watching Traktor crush Salavet Yulaev

Any way to watch legally in the US?

Any way to watch legally in the US?

If I understand correctly then now it is possible only via buying the subscription on the KHL website (I guess about 50$ for the season, although I'm not sure).

What is the best way to watch KHL in the USA this season? Does KHL TV work ok?

I doubt that the KHL TV is available legally in the USA (maybe via the satellite somehow it is though), so I think the only legal way now is via the subscription on the KHL website.

Credit cards from western banks don't work anymore via the Payture payment service which is used by the KHL website. Any idea, maybe to get a virtual Mir-credit card? My for that research wasn't succesfull so far.

As it should.

KHL will likely fold now, thanks to the political climate most teams face.

You were saying?

 

[Jets4Life]

You were saying?

Not going to fold immediately. However, Russia is losing the war badly, and it is only a matter of time that the pinch is felt for all Russians, not just the disadvantaged and minorities. The league, even if it survives, will never be the same. Trust for Russia is back to where it was in the early 80s, when the USSR was in existence.

This could be the worst thing that has happened to Russia in it's history.

The KHL pre-season is well underway and most games are available liv and on-demand on clubs respective YouTube channels. For those of us living overseas it is nice to be able to follow games so easily. Presumably once the regular season starts we will returned to illegal streams and trying to get around geoblocks and sanctions!

Just a note, KHL is reportedly negotiating to move KHL Game Center (streaming) to 3rd party (OTT platform), likely Yandex.

Geoblock is there no more on the KHL website, but the issue is that to buy the subscription you need to have a card that is working in Russia.

Surely using the KHL app on android or iOS would combat this?

I've just checked my account on KHL website, but it won't show me the page to subscribe to this season? I can only see my past purchases
