TORONTO, ON (December 29, 2023) – The Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) will provide fans with comprehensive live coverage of all 72 games during its historic inaugural season. The league today announced national broadcast partnerships in Canada with CBC / Radio-Canada, TSN and RDS, and Sportsnet, and regional deals in the United States with MSG Networks, NESN, and Bally Sports North.
“The visibility offered across our broadcast and streaming schedule is unprecedented in women’s hockey and reinforces the growing interest in our sport,” said Stan Kasten, PWHL Advisory Board member. “Accessibility of PWHL games throughout our inaugural season is a giant win for fans everywhere. We felt it was a priority to engage a magnitude of committed partners on a variety of consistent platforms.”
Coverage begins New Year’s Day at 12:00 p.m. ET, with a live on-site studio pre-game show, followed by a 12:30 p.m. ET, puck-drop between Toronto and New York at Toronto’s Mattamy Athletic Centre.
The first-ever PWHL game will feature a best-in-class broadcast team led by CBC Sports host Andi Petrillo. She will be joined in-studio by Hailey Salvian of The Athletic, former pro hockey player Saroya Tinker, and TSN reporter and Olympic gold medalist Tessa Bonhomme. Daniella Ponticelli and two-time Olympic gold medalist, TSN’s Cheryl Pounder, will provide commentary and analysis. CBC Sports’ Anastasia Bucsis will be rinkside for exclusive interviews and updates.
