How to Watch College Hockey in 2026-27

Men's college hockey is spread across several homes depending on the conference and the matchup, but the pieces are easy to line up once you know where to look. Here's the map for 2026-27.

Where the games are

• ESPN networks + ESPN app. National games appear on ESPN2 and ESPNU, and the ESPN app (ESPN+/ESPN Select) streams the bulk of the schedule.
• Big Ten Network + B1G+. Big Ten hockey airs on BTN, with non-televised Big Ten games streaming on Big Ten Plus (B1G+).
• FloHockey. FloSports carries many conferences' games, including Hockey East and others — the same subscription that carries the AHL.
• CBS Sports Network and other partners carry select games through the season.

The Frozen Four

The sport's championship weekend is the highlight. The most recent Frozen Four aired its national semifinals on ESPN2 and the national championship game on ESPN, and the tournament has been an ESPN property in recent years — expect the same again, with the exact windows confirmed closer to April.

College hockey's broadcast partners are largely stable year to year, but conference and streaming assignments can shift — we verify listings against the schools' and networks' own sources. Our live schedule fills in with college games as the season's slate is published.
