Streaming services · Sports bars · TV channels · Blackout info
Colorado Avalanche fans in Detroit, Michigan, are in luck! As Detroit is a major metro area far from Denver, you are considered fully out-of-market for the Avalanche. This means you will not face any local blackout restrictions typically imposed on in-market viewers when trying to stream games. You have the most flexibility to watch every Avalanche game. The best and most comprehensive way to catch all Colorado Avalanche games from Detroit is through an NHL.TV subscription. Since you are out-of-market, NHL.TV will provide access to all regular season games without blackouts. Additionally, national broadcasts on ESPN, TNT, and Max (which streams TNT and truTV content) will also be available, though these only cover a select number of games throughout the season.
