A new era in women’s sports is underway with the second season of the Professional Women’s Hockey League. Better known as the PWHL for short, this season features new names for the six North American teams who will compete across 30 games from November 30, 2024 to May 5, 2025, followed by the playoffs and PWHL finals.
Want to watch the women’s hockey league on TV and online? Here’s what you need to know.
How to Watch PWHL Games on TV
League officials set an ambitious goal last year to have every game televised in the U.S. and Canada, and they’re close to achieving that goal for the 2024-25 season.
You can watch PWHL games this year on TSN and CBC in Canada, and on MSG Networks and NESN in the United States. Amazon Prime Video will also stream a handful of games online free for Amazon Prime members.
How to Watch PWHL Games Online
You can also watch the professional women’s hockey games online with a live TV streaming service like fuboTV. Fubo includes a live feed of MSG and NESN as part of its channel offerings, so you can use it to livestream PWHL online. Even better: Fubo includes free DVR so you can record the games to watch back on-demand.

We also like NordVPN, which you can also use to watch the women’s hockey games online for free. Nord’s plans start at just $3.59/month as of this writing with an online promotion.
The women’s professional hockey league was formerly known as the Premier Hockey Federation, and PHF games were airing on ESPN, but it’s unclear as of this writing if ESPN (or its streaming site ESPN+) will pick up the new PWHL games.
PWHL 2024-25 Season: Teams, Schedule
Six teams will be part of the PWHL regular season, each with new names: the Montreal Victoire, Ottawa Charge and Toronto Sceptres represent Canada, while the Boston Fleet, Minnestora Frost and New York Sirens rep the USA.
The league will play a total of 30 games during its regular season, with the playoffs kicking off May 3, 2025.
