Amazon Prime Video to Broadcast Games Locally for Six NHL Teams, Including Carolina
The multi-year deal gives fans monthly and annual subscription options and adds Wild+ for games not carried by national broadcasters.
- On Wednesday, the National Hockey League announced a multi-year agreement making Prime Video the exclusive local streaming home for six teams: the Minnesota Wild, Carolina Hurricanes, Anaheim Ducks, Columbus Blue Jackets, Dallas Stars, and Blues, beginning with the 2026-27 season.
- Since the regional sports network model has fractured in recent years, the Anaheim Ducks and Dallas Stars are departing the streamer Victory, which has faced financial issues in the past year.
- Minnesota Wild Chief Revenue Officer and Executive Vice President Mitch Helgerson announced the deal, noting the Wild is launching a team-owned multimedia network to stream games on Prime Video.
- NHL executive David Proper said the agreement gives clubs flexibility to meet fan demand as the market evolves; each team will set subscription rates and announce additional details before the season begins.
- Amazon has expanded its NHL footprint beyond this deal, having previously secured a broadcasting agreement with the Seattle Kraken and national rights in Canada, while also offering regional sports networks via subscription.
