Rogers Communications, Amazon and the NHL announced Thursday a two-year agreement to bring hockey fans in Canada Monday night games exclusively on Prime Video.

Prime Monday Night Hockey will stream all national regular-season Monday night NHL games in English for the 2024-25 and 2025-26 NHL seasons. The deal is the NHL’s first exclusive national broadcast package with a digital-only streaming service in Canada.

The Prime Monday Night Hockey package, produced by Prime Video, will feature a new broadcast team offering in-depth analysis and play-by-play coverage, and stream live exclusively to Prime members in Canada.

“Rogers’ partnership with the NHL has been incredibly successful and integral to Sportsnet’s leadership as the No. 1 sports media brand in Canada,” said Colette Watson, President, Rogers Sports & Media. “Today’s content ecosystem is evolving, and we’re really pleased to work with Amazon to continue to grow the game and help hockey fans watch games when and where they want.”

At the beginning of the 2023-24 hockey season, Sportsnet launched on Prime Video Channels in Canada. Thursday’s announcement builds on the 12-year agreement between Rogers and the NHL that was announced in November 2013. Since 2021, the NHL has worked with Amazon Web Services to deliver new in-game analytics and video highlights to enhance fan experiences.
