Take a look at the reason why many Detroit Red Wings fans won't be able to watch Opening Night.
We've got hockey tonight, as the Detroit Red Wings are set to officially begin the 2023-24 season on the road by playing the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center. However, the only negative about tonight's game is that local Red Wings fans will not be hearing the familiar voices of Ken Daniels and Mickey Redmond – and may not even be able to access the game at all. The game will be broadcast on ESPN+ and Hulu, which not everyone has access to.

ESPN Plus is not a traditional television channel and is not included in cable and satellite packages offered by companies such as Comcast/Xfinity, Verizon, Frontier, and DirecTV.
In order to access ESPN+, viewers need to be subscribed to the service directly through the ESPN+ website or app. Fans may consider gathering with friends or family members who have access to that platform, or alternatively, they could watch Opening Night at a local establishment.
