Oilers vs. Rangers at a glance

Is Oilers vs. Rangers on DIRECTV?

Yes. NHL Network is DIRECTV channel 215. It isn't in every package, so check your lineup. If you live in the Rangers' home area, watch on MSG, since NHL Network's broadcast is usually blacked out in the teams' local markets.

How to stream it

Stream NHL Network or MSG in the DIRECTV app if they're in your package. Do not assume ESPN’s out-of-market hockey service includes this NHL Network-selected game. Check the actual event listing for your location.

Choose the correct viewing route

The US national NHL Network feed and the local MSG feed serve different viewing areas. This NHL Network assignment should not be treated as a routine ESPN out-of-market stream. Check the event listing for your address; a general hockey package does not override local or national restrictions.

Before the broadcast

Open the guide on the television or device you plan to use, search both names and confirm the date. Test sign-in and account authorization before the program starts. If recording, select the exact event and allow extra time where your DVR supports it.

A separate app subscription, a TV-provider login and a channel being visible in a general guide are different things. Review the actual included feed and current total cost before paying twice.
