How to watch Game 7 of the Vegas Golden Knights vs. Dallas Stars without cable
If your cable subscription doesn't include TBS or TruTV, or if you've cut the cord with your cable company, you can still watch the playoffs. Below are the platforms where you can watch today's NHL Playoffs game.
Sling TV: The most cost-effective way to stream Golden Knights vs. stars
If you don't have cable and want to watch today's game, one of the most cost-effective ways to stream playoff games is through a Sling TV subscription. To watch hockey in the postseason, you'll need a subscription to the Orange + Blue tier. Also worth noting: Sling TV comes with 50 hours of cloud-based DVR recording space included, perfect for recording tonight's championship game.
Sling's Orange + Blue tier costs $60 per month, but the platform currently offers $25 off the first month of any pricing tier, making the Orange + Blue tier $35 the first month. You can cancel at any time.
Note: Because Sling TV doesn't offer CBS, you won't be able to watch CBS-broadcast programming like next year's NFL games on CBS. If you're looking for a live TV streaming platform to watch all your favorite sports, we suggest a subscription Hulu + Live TV.
Key features of the Sling TV Orange + Blue tier:
- There are 46 channels to watch in total, including ABC, NBC and Fox (if available).
