Live Ice Hockey on TV

Live Ice Hockey: Schedules, Dates, TV Channels & Start times

Ice hockey games are typically played during the winter months, when ice rinks are frozen and suitable for gameplay. The exact schedule varies depending on the league or tournament, but in general, ice hockey games take place from September to April.

In North America, the National Hockey League (NHL) is the most popular professional league and their regular season runs from October to April. Playoffs then begin in April and the Stanley Cup Finals take place in June.

In Europe, leagues often follow a similar schedule, with games starting in September or October and playoffs taking place in March or April. The International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) also holds tournaments throughout the year, with their most prestigious event being the World Championships that usually takes place in May.

During the peak months, there are usually several ice hockey fixtures a night with numerous sides playing in parallel as well as staggered starting times to allow viewers to catch multiple games in a single day. Unfortunately, since many of the sports’ best teams play in North America, ice hockey fixtures tend to be held past midnight on the UK & European time zones.
