Here is how you can watch the NHL Stanly Cup playoffs on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and more even if you don’t have a cable TV subscription.
#1 Antenna
NBC will be the place to go for many NHL Playoff Games. Hulu, ,Sling TV, YouTube TV, PlayStation Vue, and DIRECTV NOW all offer NBC in some markets; however, the best way to watch is 100% with an antenna.
