From the Boston area
In order to access the Bruin’s broadcasts on NESN, DIRECTV STREAM requires an upgrade to its more expensive “Choice” plan. With DIRECTV STREAM “Choice,” sports fans gain access to the local regional sports network in their viewing area, including NESN for watching Bruins and Red Sox games.
If you don’t live in Boston, to make 100% sure you will have access to NESN, confirm you are in the channel’s viewing area prior to paying for DTV.
NESN publishes a territory map, which can be viewed here.
fuboTV is another excellent choice for live streaming Bruins games. The platform carries NESN and NBC Sports Boston in the base package, and comes with 1,000 hours of DVR storage.
The main drawback with fuboTV for NBA and NHL fans is the app’s lack of TNT.
Out-of-market
Outside of the NESN viewing territory, Bruins fans can watch the team out-of-market on ESPN+, or wait for the team to appear in nationally televised games.
ESPN+ is the new home of NHL.TV, which is the NHL’s out-of-market product. If you live in New England, Bruins games on ESPN+ will be blacked out to protect NESN’s TV rights.
