2024-25 NHL schedule: How to watch on ESPN, ESPN+, Hulu, ABC

NHL

The 2024-25 NHL season is off and running, and the ESPN family of networks is your home for hockey.

There will be 100 exclusive games across ESPN, ESPN+, Hulu and ABC this season, plus 1,050-plus out-of-market games available on NHL Power Play on ESPN+. 

The broadcast season began on Oct. 8 with a tripleheader.

On Oct. 22, the NHL Frozen Frenzy -- a special night of hockey featuring all 32 teams in action -- made its return. 

The NHL 4 Nations Faceoff will take place from Feb. 12-20, including teams of NHL players representing the United States, Canada, Finland and Sweden in a round-robin tournament. Three round-robin games and the championship game will be broadcast on ESPN and ABC.

March 1 will see the return of the Stadium Series to ESPN, with the Columbus Blue Jackets hosting the Detroit Red Wings at Ohio Stadium, home of the Ohio State Buckeyes football team.
