Vegas vs Anaheim on October 3
Just saw this one on the schedule - Vegas vs Anaheim on October 3, and I genuinely have no clue where it's showing here in Canada 😅 Is it Sportsnet or TSN carrying it, or do I need some streaming thing? And what time does the puck drop for us out west? Don't want to miss the opener, thanks in advance 🙏

Same boat here, still learning this stuff 😅 what's a "streaming workaround" exactly. Like NHL Live, or something sketchier? Thanks in advance 🙏
katie, a workaround just means a way to watch when the game isn't on your usual cable channel, in this case, if sportsnet doesn't pick it up, you'd go through something like the nhl streaming package or whatever service has the rights that night. honestly, back in my day you just hoped your local channel carried it and complained at the water cooler otherwise 😄 for this opener i'd check sportsnet first since they tend to split the national games with tsn, then fall back on a legal stream if neither lists it. patience, kid, we've all fumbled through this before 😉
Been here longer than some have followed.
welcome to the rabbit hole, kids 😄 short version: usually these early season us-market games land on sportsnet or sportsnet+ streaming, tsn rarely touches them. puck drop for a vegas saturday game is typically 10pm eastern / 7 out west. best move is check the sportsnet schedule the week of, saves you paying for the nhl package when you don't need to.
Seen it all, lads.
