The NHL and broadcast partners in the United States (ESPN and TNT networks) have released their schedule of exclusive broadcasts for the 2025-26 season. The Anaheim Ducks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/anaheim-ducks] are scheduled to feature in just five games between these two corporations: Nov. 11 at Colorado Avalanche (TNT) Dec. 3 vs Utah Mammoth (TNT) Jan. 13 vs Dallas Stars (TNT) Feb. 1 vs Vegas Golden Knights (ESPN) Feb. 3 vs Seattle Kraken (TNT) All of Anaheim’s opponents in these contests are Western Conference foes, as the team looks to take another sizable leap in the standings after a 21-point improvement in 2024-25 and make the playoffs for the first time since the 2017-18 season. A new coaching staff, two high-profile departures, and four key acquisitions highlight the Ducks’ 2025 offseason, but those storylines weren’t enough to entice ESPN or TNT into broadcasting more than five of the franchise’s games. The Ducks' pivotal 2025-26 season commences on Oct. 9 in Seattle to take on division rival, Seattle Kraken.
