- Fubo has signed a multi-year deal with the NHL to add four regional sports networks to its platform.
- Subscribers in respective markets can stream live games starting with the 2026-2027 season.
- The additions builds on Fubo’s existing live hockey coverage, which includes the NHL Network, ESPN, and ABC.
Thanks to the new deal with the NHL, Fubo will now carry coverage of the Carolina Hurricanes, Columbus Blue Jackets, Minnesota Wild and St. Louis Blues.
As these are regional networks, they will only be available to Fubo subscribers in markets where the teams’ games are normally available to watch live.
“We’re excited to bring Hurricanes, Blue Jackets, Wild and Blues games to Fubo,” said David Proper, chief media officer, NHL. “Fans in Carolina, Columbus, Minnesota and St. Louis bring incredible passion and excitement to the game every night and this partnership gives them another great option to watch their team all season long.”
The carriage of these regional sports networks adds to Fubo’s existing hockey coverage which includes NHL Network, ESPN, ABC, and other RSNs.
“Hockey fans in the Carolinas, Columbus, Minnesota and St. Louis can enjoy coverage of their favorite teams on Fubo this season,” said Todd Mathers, executive vice president, content strategy & acquisition, Fubo. “The addition of these RSNs to our already robust local sports coverage means Fubo subscribers can continue to enjoy their favorite local teams despite recent shifts in sports rights ownership.”
According to Fubo, the new RSNs will be available to access before the first puck of the 2026-2027 season drops.
