Seattle Kraken Hockey Broadcast Rights & Regional Blackout Guide (2026–27 Kraken Season)

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

Out-of-Market Seattle Kraken Games in Canada (Sportsnet+ Premium)

Sportsnet+ Premium (53 English games) hold the official regional rights for the Seattle Kraken. 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 Seattle Kraken games. Out-of-market Kraken 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 Kraken Games (Sportsnet, Prime & TVA Sports)

When the Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken 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 Kraken Fans in Canada: Because the Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken games considered out-of-market across Canada?
Because the Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken games in Canada without regional blackouts?

Because the Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken games blacked out anywhere in Canada?

No. Saturday night Seattle Kraken 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 Seattle Kraken games stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video?

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