NHL Questions, Answered
Are Stanley Cup Playoff games free on TheTVApp?
Yes, all four rounds through the Final, since they air on ESPN, ABC and TNT feeds the platform carries. Overtime playoff hockey is exactly the content people cut cable over.
Can I watch out-of-market NHL teams?
Yes. Regional feeds stream without market restrictions, so a displaced fan follows their team's full schedule as easily as a local, no out-of-market package required.
Does TheTVApp carry the outdoor games?
Yes, the winter outdoor showcases air on the national networks in the lineup and stream like any other marquee game, in HD.
What about other winter sports?
Hockey season overlaps with the NBA and college basketball, both covered on their own pages, and the fight calendar on the boxing page runs all winter.
