Boston Bruins Hockey Broadcast Rights & Regional Blackout Guide (2026–27 Bruins Season)

Following the Boston Bruins regular season and preseason broadcasts across Canada requires understanding how NHL broadcast territory rights are allocated between national networks and regional partners. For Boston Bruins fans, games are split across distinct television and streaming networks: Sportsnet+ Premium, Sportsnet, Amazon Prime Video, and TVA Sports.

Out-of-Market Boston Bruins Games in Canada (Sportsnet+ Premium)

Sportsnet+ Premium (42 English games) hold the official regional rights for the Boston Bruins. 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 Boston Bruins games. Out-of-market Bruins 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 Bruins Games (Sportsnet, Prime & TVA Sports)

When the Boston Bruins 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 Boston Bruins games stream nationally on Wednesday nights exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in English, which also carries coast-to-coast clearance with no regional blackouts.

Quick Summary for Bruins Fans in Canada: Because the Boston Bruins are based in the US, their games are out-of-market in Canada. Watch them using Sportsnet+ Premium or NHL Centre Ice, or tune in coast-to-coast without blackouts whenever the Boston Bruins air nationally in Canada on Sportsnet, Amazon Prime Video, or TVA Sports.

Blackout Rules & FAQ

Game Type Network Blackout Status
Regional Sportsnet+ Premium Subject to Regional Blackouts
National (Sat) Sportsnet / TVA Sports No Blackouts
National (Wed) Amazon Prime Video No Blackouts

Why are Boston Bruins games considered out-of-market across Canada?
Because the Boston Bruins are based in the US, their games are out-of-market in Canada and do not have a local Canadian regional TV territory. Watch them using Sportsnet+ Premium (streaming) or NHL Centre Ice (cable/satellite), unless the matchup is selected for a coast-to-coast Canadian national broadcast on Sportsnet, Amazon Prime Video, or TVA Sports, or played against a Canadian team inside that Canadian team's home broadcast region.

Why am I getting a Sportsnet blackout or NHL regional blackout tonight?

If your screen goes dark and displays a blackout message on Sportsnet or TSN, the game is a Regional Broadcast and your physical location is outside the team's NHL-defined territory. You must use Sportsnet+ Premium to stream out-of-market regional games.

Even if you pay for the channel through a standard TV package, the NHL forces the network to blackout the signal for out-of-market viewers.

How do I watch Boston Bruins games in Canada without regional blackouts?

Because the Boston Bruins are based in the US, their games are out-of-market in Canada. Watch them using Sportsnet+ Premium (for online streaming) or NHL Centre Ice (for cable/satellite), plus Sportsnet and Amazon Prime Video for national Canadian broadcasts.

Are Saturday night Boston Bruins games blacked out anywhere in Canada?

No. Saturday night Boston Bruins games on Sportsnet and TVA Sports are part of the NHL's national broadcast package. These games clear coast-to-coast across Canada with zero regional blackouts on standard cable packages.

Which Boston Bruins games stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video?

National Wednesday Night Hockey broadcasts featuring the Boston Bruins are exclusive to Amazon Prime Video in English across Canada. These streams carry no regional blackout restrictions for Prime subscribers anywhere in the country.
