Fans of the Kelly Cup champions will have multiple options to watch and listen to the team this season.
The Kelly Cup Champion Florida Everblades are entering a new era of broadcasting just in time for the 2024-25 season.
For the first time in team history, the Everblades will offer dedicated broadcasts for both television and radio, providing fans with a variety of ways to catch all the action.
Select Everblades home games will be broadcast live on the Heroes and Icons Network, a national television network focused on American heroes, legends, and icons.
It’s a fitting network for a team that made history by winning three consecutive Kelly Cups.
"We’re thrilled to expand our sports programming by bringing the Florida Everblades to the WBBH H&I Network,” said Hearst vice president Darrel Lieze-Adams. “As a channel that celebrates American heroes and icons, the Everblades’ passion, dedication, and relentless competitive spirit perfectly align with the values we champion in our programming. We look forward to sharing their journey with our viewers this coming season."
The following games will be televised on Heroes and Icons:

FloHockey will remain as the Everblades’ exclusive streaming partner. All games not televised on Heroes and Icons will be streamed exclusively on the leading subscription service dedicated to professional minor league sports. Fans can subscribe to FloHockey to catch every Everblades game throughout the season.
The Everblades are also thrilled to bring back dedicated radio broadcasts for the 2024-25 season. Games will be carried live on ESPN Southwest Florida or Mixlr depending on station availability. The complete radio broadcast schedule will be announced soon.
"ESPN Southwest Florida is proud to continue our long-standing partnership with the Florida Everblades,” said ESPN Southwest Florida producer Chris Beasley. “We're excited to bring Everblades hockey to our listeners and help support the local community."
The Everblades' broadcast team remains a familiar face for fans. Voices of the Everblades Jake Maurice and Mike Kelly return along with newcomer Trey Matthews.
“We are incredibly excited to offer our fans a wider variety of ways to experience Everblades hockey this season,” said Everblades team president Craig Brush. “The partnership with Heroes and Icons brings our team to a wider audience, while FloHockey remains the perfect platform for fans to catch every game. We’re also thrilled to bring back dedicated radio broadcasts on ESPN SWFL and have Jake, Mike, and Trey back in the booth.”
