Anaheim Ducks Hockey Broadcast Rights & Regional Blackout Guide (2026β27 Ducks Season)
Following the Anaheim Ducks regular season and preseason broadcasts across Canada requires understanding how NHL broadcast territory rights are allocated between national networks and regional partners. For Anaheim Ducks fans, games are split across distinct television and streaming networks: Sportsnet+ Premium, Sportsnet, Amazon Prime Video, and TVA Sports.
Out-of-Market Anaheim Ducks Games in Canada (Sportsnet+ Premium)
Sportsnet+ Premium (49 English games) hold the official regional rights for the Anaheim Ducks. Their broadcast boundary is restricted by NHL carriage rules strictly to United States (Out-of-Market Across Canada).
If you reside outside this territory, standard cable subscriptions to Sportsnet+ Premium will show a regional blackout screen during live Anaheim Ducks games. Out-of-market Ducks fans must use Sportsnet+ Premium (for online streaming) or add NHL Centre Ice (for traditional cable/satellite TV) to watch regional feeds legally. Note that NHL Centre Ice does not include an online streaming option.
National Ducks Games (Sportsnet, Prime & TVA Sports)
When the Anaheim Ducks play on Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada broadcasts, Sportsnet (English) and TVA Sports (French) broadcast coast-to-coast with zero regional blackouts anywhere in Canada. Every Canadian viewer with standard cable or basic streaming packages can watch these matchups.
Select regular-season Anaheim Ducks games stream nationally on Wednesday nights exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in English, which also carries coast-to-coast clearance with no regional blackouts.
