TORONTO and NEW YORK – SiriusXM has extended its multi-year agreement with National Hockey League meaning that its subscribers across North America will have access to live game broadcasts through the 2021-22 NHL season.
The satellite radio company said Tuesday that it will continue to broadcast live NHL games from the pre-season through the Stanley Cup Final, and in addition to play-by-play broadcasts, SiriusXM NHL Network Radio will continue to offer NHL news and events; player, coach and executive features; as well as game analysis and interviews from the most recognized hockey broadcasters in North America.
Starting this season, NHL games and the SiriusXM NHL Network Radio channel will be available to more subscribers than ever before and will be accessible on all radios with SiriusXM's most widely distributed subscription package. Those subscribers with a SiriusXM All Access plan will continue to have access to all NHL programming on the SiriusXM app and online at SiriusXM.com and SiriusXM.ca.
"We are excited that the NHL will now be co-producing SiriusXM NHL Radio with us, which will result in even better programming than what our listeners have grown to love”, said Sirius XM Canada president and CEO Mark Redmond, in the news release. “The exclusive NHL content, along with easy access to full-time NHL coverage and live game play-by-play, is an offering that hockey fans can't get anywhere else."
"Our long-standing partnership with SiriusXM has always been focused on making the game accessible to fans," added NHL chief operating officer John Collins. "Our expanded partnership will ensure we can continue to deliver fans across North America more programming and more games – from pre-season puck drop to the final buzzer – for years to come."
