When the Panthers skated into Game 4 with a 3-0 lead, many thought that they were about to witness the first Stanley Cup Finals sweep since 1998. However, the Oilers fought back and walked away with a massive 8-1 victory, propelling the teams to Game 5, which the Oilers also won before pulling off another huge win on Friday to tie the series 3-3. We’re just one game away from seeing if the Panthers can score their first Stanley Cup in franchise history or if the Oilers have a chance at pulling off one of the more impressive NHL comebacks.

How to watch Stanley Cup Finals in the US

Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals will air on ABC on Friday at 8 p.m. ET in the US. Those without cable can explore one of the many live streaming alternatives that stream ABC content. Your cheapest option today will be ESPN+, which only costs $10.99 monthly. If the Stanley Cup Finals head to Game 7, this will also cover you.

Another option for viewing the game is through a live TV package, like Sling TV and Fubo. Sling TV lets users stream ABC in select regions using the Sling Orange + Blue plan (for $55 a month), but new users can currently get half off their first month (so it’ll only end up costing about $27.50 pre-tax tonight). Keep in mind that Sling’s local channel coverage is fairly selective, so you’ll want to double-check which networks are available in your region using your zip code before you subscribe. You can find a full breakdown on Sling’s local channels page.

With monthly subscriptions starting at $79.99 a month, Fubo is a slightly more expensive live TV option, but it has pretty broad ABC coverage. The service is sports-friendly and has a massive catalog of channels, so even though the NHL season is coming to a close, you can probably watch your other favorite teams through Fubo. Plus, new users can try out the service free for one week. As is always the case with live TV packages, you should still look up your zip code prior to subscribing to ensure that your region has access to the channels you want to watch.

How to watch Stanley Cup Finals from anywhere

Hockey fans who will be traveling outside of the US for the game can still keep up with their subscriptions using a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs let you change your device’s electronic location so that you can still use all of your usual websites and apps, no matter where you are. Since the services we’ve outlined require US forms of payment, this suggestion will work best for Americans who are just traveling abroad and hoping to use their existing subscriptions.  

If this sounds like it might be a good fit, our go-to recommendation is ExpressVPN, a beginner-friendly VPN with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our ExpressVPN review for additional details, and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
