St. Louis Blues Hockey Broadcast Rights & Regional Blackout Guide (2026β27 Blues Season)
Following the St. Louis Blues regular season across the United States requires understanding how NHL broadcast territory rights are split between regional sports networks and national streaming partners. For St. Louis Blues fans, games are divided across FanDuel Sports Midwest, ESPN+, ESPN/ABC, TNT, and NHL Network.
Regional St. Louis Blues Games (FanDuel Sports Midwest)
FanDuel Sports Midwest holds the official in-market regional broadcast rights for the St. Louis Blues (76 regular-season games) across Missouri, Southern Illinois, Eastern Kansas & Arkansas. If your US ZIP code falls inside the St. Louis Blues local broadcast territory, regional games are blacked out on ESPN+ and must be watched via FanDuel Sports Midwest.
If you live outside the St. Louis Blues local broadcast territory in the US, regional Blues games stream live on ESPN+ (unless the St. Louis Blues are playing an opponent whose local broadcast territory includes your ZIP code).
National Blues Games (ESPN, ABC, TNT & NHL Network)
When the St. Louis Blues are selected for an exclusive national US broadcast on ESPN, TNT, or NHL Network (10 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.
