I’m in Texas. Originally from NY. I have ESPN+. I don’t have the NHL channel on my cable system.
Any recommendations would be appreciatived to cover the rest of the NYR games not covered on ESPN+.

Sling has the NHL Network. I believe Fubo has the NHL Network. The cost may not be worth having it for when the Rangers games are on the NHL network. Sling is a cheaper than Fubo.

It seems YouTube is your best streaming option as it has ESPN's, Turner networks (TNT, etc...), local channels, and the NHL Network.

Fubo (which I have here in FL) currently doesn't have the Turner Networks. Sling doesn't have local networks and, honestly, I didn't love the service either.

I have Fubo instead of YouTube because the Tennis Channel is important to me and there is no option for that on YouTube so I'm going to miss the Turner network games unfortunately.

The only thing I really don't know about the services in your area (let's say you're in Dallas) is whether or not Fubo, Sling, YouTube have options for when the Rangers are the visiting team and it's covered by your local regional sports network. It'll likely be blacked out on ESPN+, etc... when that's the case.

Does Youtube have MSG?
 
Does ESPN+ give me exactly what I had as an a former NHL.TV subscriber?

All rangers games EXCEPT out of market and NATIONAL coverage?

I just noticed that they also billed me for hulu tv. This is crazy. Hulu is crud. Time to cancel another credit card.

My DVR is recording it. I guess nhl cener ice is free during the preseason.

Won't be as often during the year, but some games against certain teams will no doubt be claimed by NHL network. I think the early season game against Toronto is.
 
i was on chat with ESPN + yesterday... he told me it's mostly for the fan "on the go" . It's not a direct replacement for NHL.TV, etc....

He pointed me toward HULU Live TV plus... which is around $65-75 a month! And you still don't get every game!

I'm not sure what to here. i'm in PA. and looking for most cost effective way to see "most games"

previously i was using SLing for the POs....
 
It seems like a pretty huge marketing oversight when fans who cut their cords have no idea how to watch games. It seems like ESPN+ is the way to watch most. But then there's Hulu, Sling, NHL Network, NBCSN? I need to individually sign up for all these things. If I want to click "buy" on a screen once to watch all the games I can't do that. And I don't want what these other services offer, anyway.

It's not an oversight... it's incompetence.

The NHL shouldn't be this difficult to have access to in 2021. You wanna charge me to watch every NYR game? Fine. What's the cost?! I'll pay it. But I want to see EVERY NYR GAME DAMIT

I am not and shouldn't have to subscribe to 3-4 different platforms to watch my team.

It's just another way the NHL can't get out of their own way. Sling? Fubo??? Are you serious?

You partnered w ESPN+

PUT ALL THE f***ING GAMES ON ESPN+

Exactly! so frustrated right now. its so convoluted. ESPN+ is only showing 13 games for the season... that's not a direct replacement for NHL Center Ice...
