How to watch the NHL on TNT

Colorado Avalanche's Cale Makar.

The NHL on TNT is back to bring hockey fans 60-plus games throughout the regular season, leading into the playoffs and all the way to the Stanley Cup Finals this year.

The cable network is one of the two TV homes for the NHL throughout the 2024-2025 NHL season, with NHL on ESPN being the other. But there is another option to watch the NHL, specifically the NHL on TNT matchup, as Max will be carrying live streams of the hockey games throughout the year.

Here is everything you need to know about the NHL on TNT this season:

How to watch the NHL on TNT on TV

The NHL on TNT is, as its name indicates, carried by TNT. The cable channel is available on every major cable and satellite pay-TV provider. In addition, live TV streaming services like DirecTV Stream, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV and YouTube TV all provide live viewing of TNT through at least one of the available subscription packages.

How to stream NHL on TNT

The NHL on Max is back for the 2024-2025 season, as all NHL on TNT games are going to be available to stream at the same time on Max.

As of right now, all Max subscribers can watch live sports on the streaming service through its B/R add-on channel at no additional cost. However, eventually streaming sports is going to be a little extra each month, $9.99 per month to be exact, but when that monthly price is going to start being implemented is TBD.

How to watch NHL on TNT from anywhere

If you finds yourself outside of the US but wanting to watch NHL action, a Virtual Private Network (VPN) can help if there is no easy way to catch the action.

A VPN lets you get around the usual digital barriers by changing your IP address, meaning you can watch sports like the NHL as you would in your home country. Our favorite is NordVPN, which is the No. 1-rated VPN in the world right now according to our sister site, TechRadar.
