NHL.TV is a popular streaming service available in over 200 countries for watching NHL games, a nice luxury for Toronto Maple Leafs fans who live overseas. That, however, is set to change.

The league announced Wednesday that NHL.TV will be moving to the streaming service platform DAZN for all nations outside of Canada, the United States, and the Nordic nations, beginning with the 2025-26 season. According to the press release, NHL.TV will be available on DAZN as a standalone subscription or as an add-on to existing DAZN packages. This service will cover nearly 200 countries worldwide, excluding the U.S., Canada, and the Nordics (Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden).

Essentially, the NHL.TV service as it was previously known will no longer be available directly through the league in any of the remaining countries. This move mirrors similar transitions in North America, where NHL.TV previously shifted to streaming partners. In Canada, NHL.TV’s offerings are now under the Sportsnet+ Premium banner, while in the United States, NHL.TV is exclusively available through ESPN+.

It is currently unclear if any functionality will change under DAZN’s management of the package. Previously, under NHL.TV, every game was available and archived for over a decade, including home, away, and national broadcasts. DAZN holds international NFL rights, was the broadcast home of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025, and streams over 90,000 live events annually.
