Dallas Stars Hockey Broadcast Rights & Regional Blackout Guide (2026–27 Stars Season)

Following the Dallas Stars regular season across the United States requires understanding how NHL broadcast territory rights are split between regional sports networks and national streaming partners. For Dallas Stars fans, games are divided across Victory+, ESPN+, ESPN/ABC, TNT, and NHL Network.

Regional Dallas Stars Games (Victory+)

Victory+ holds the official in-market regional broadcast rights for the Dallas Stars (74 regular-season games) across Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana & Arkansas. If your US ZIP code falls inside the Dallas Stars local broadcast territory, regional games are blacked out on ESPN+ and must be watched via Victory+.

If you live outside the Dallas Stars local broadcast territory in the US, regional Stars games stream live on ESPN+ (unless the Dallas Stars are playing an opponent whose local broadcast territory includes your ZIP code).

National Stars Games (ESPN, ABC, TNT & NHL Network)

When the Dallas Stars are selected for an exclusive national US broadcast on ESPN, TNT, or NHL Network (12 games), the broadcast is blacked out on ESPN+ nationwide unless simulcast on ABC/ESPN+.

Viewers both in-market and out-of-market need access to the designated national television channel or streaming tier (such as Max for TNT simulcasts) to watch these national exclusives.

Quick Summary for Stars Fans: Use the US ZIP Code Lookup above to check your local market status. In-market ZIP codes (Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana & Arkansas) watch regional games on Victory+; out-of-market US ZIP codes stream regional games on ESPN+.

Blackout Rules & FAQ

Game Type Network Blackout Status
Regional (In-Market ZIP) Victory+ Blacked Out on ESPN+ (Watch on Victory+)
Regional (Out-of-Market ZIP) ESPN+ Stream on ESPN+ (Unless Opponent Is Local to Your ZIP)
US National Exclusive ESPN / ABC / TNT / NHL Network Requires National Channel (Unless ABC/ESPN+ Simulcast)

Why are Dallas Stars games blacked out on ESPN+?

ESPN+ only carries out-of-market NHL games. If you live inside the Dallas Stars local broadcast territory, regional games are blacked out on ESPN+ and must be watched on Victory+. Additionally, any game airing nationally on ESPN, ABC, TNT, or NHL Network is blacked out on ESPN+ nationwide unless explicitly simulcast.

What channel broadcasts regional Dallas Stars games in-market?

In-market regional Dallas Stars games are carried by Victory+. Viewers inside the designated local broadcast territory need cable, satellite, a live TV streamer, or a direct-to-consumer RSN subscription that includes Victory+.

How do I watch Dallas Stars games if I live out of market in the US?

Out-of-market fans in the United States can stream regional Dallas Stars games live on ESPN+ (carrying both the Victory+ feed and the opponent feed), except when the Dallas Stars play a team whose local broadcast territory includes your ZIP code or when the game airs exclusively on a national network.
