NHL Network
During the NHL season, the NHL Network™ (Ch. 215) is included in your subscription to NHL CENTER ICE. In the off-season, you’ll need to subscribe to a package that includes the NHL Network – Ultimate or above.
Also available in HD, the NHL Network delivers live games, daily highlight shows, and up-to-the-minute hockey news. You can follow your favorite players from the rink to the locker room with shows like NHL Now™, NHL Tonight™, On the Fly™, and more.
NHL Center Ice games are broadcast on Ch. 769-785.
HD games are represented by a -1 in the program guide. For example, if the Ducks vs. Bruins game is broadcast in SD on Ch. 769, you can see it in HD (if available) on Ch. 769-1.
Most games on NHL CENTER ICE are available in HD. The actual number of games varies due to blackout restrictions and whether they are available to DIRECTV in HD.
Dual Feeds
If you want to catch both sides of the game, check out Dual Feeds. When available, this feature lets you choose between the home and away broadcasts of the same game. For example, if the Ducks are playing the Bruins, you can see the Ducks broadcast on one channel and the Bruins broadcast on another channel.
Heads up
