Streaming services · Sports bars · TV channels · Blackout info
For San Jose Sharks fans living in Houston, TX, catching every game live is straightforward, and you're in luck: you won't face any local blackout restrictions for Sharks games. Since Houston is far outside the Sharks' regional broadcast territory, you are considered an out-of-market fan, which opens up the most streaming options. The primary way to watch nearly every San Jose Sharks game is through an NHL.TV subscription, which provides access to all out-of-market games. Additionally, some Sharks games will be nationally televised on ESPN, TNT, or simulcast on Max, which means you'll need subscriptions to these services or a live TV streaming package that includes them.
