Rogers Communications and Amazon’s Prime Video sign a 12-year sublicensing agreement that gives Prime Video exclusive Canadian broadcast rights to more NHL games. The deal makes Prime Video the long-term home for the league’s Wednesday night national regular-season “Wednesday Night Hockey” package in Canada. Multiple outlets report the games are available in both English and French and that the arrangement begins with the 2026-27 NHL season, with one report citing a start date of September 30. The agreement also includes Prime Video broadcasting select early-round Stanley Cup Playoff series, described as specific first-round matchups and an additional early series annually. Reporting states the content is part of Rogers’ broader 12-year NHL national media rights contract in Canada, which runs through the 2037-38 season. Financial Post and others say Prime Video receives exclusivity for the Wednesday night regular-season package and for particular early playoff series rather than all postseason games. Overall, the outlets characterize the agreement as a long-term expansion of Prime Video’s NHL presence in Canada.
