The Buffalo Sabres play in the National Hockey League. NHL games run on national windows across ESPN, ESPN+, TNT, and Max — plus regional sports networks for in-market broadcasts. ESPN+ carries every out-of-market regular-season game.
NHL broadcasts run through three primary lanes. National games air on ESPN, ESPN+, TNT, and Max under the league's media-rights deals. In-market games air on the team's regional sports network, distributed through cable and select streaming partners. ESPN+ serves as the catch-all for out-of-market viewers — every regular-season game outside your local TV market streams there.
