If you live in New York, New Jersey, Southern Connecticut, or Northern PA, you can live stream New York Islanders games on MSG+ with fuboTV or DIRECTV STREAM. Both live TV streaming services support a wide array of streaming devices, including Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Samsung Smart TV, iPhone and more.
Our top pick for watching the Islanders in-market is DIRECTV STREAM “Choice,” which is the only live TV streaming package that combines MSG+ with ABC, ESPN, and TNT for watching nationally televised NHL games, including the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Out-of-market Islanders fans can watch most games on ESPN+.

Best options for local Islanders fans
Although an upgrade to the more expensive “Choice” package is required, Islanders fans can watch MSG+ on DIRECTV STREAM.
With DIRECTV STREAM “Choice” sports fans in NY can also watch the Knicks, Nets, Yankees, Mets, Giants, Jets, Devils, and Rangers, making the platform a great choice if you want to follow all your local teams, not just the Islanders.
fuboTV
fuboTV carries most every Islanders game on MSG+ for in-market fans. The drawback with fuboTV for NHL fans is the platform’s lack of TNT.
Although you can live stream NFL games on fuboTV, including the Giants and Jets, fuboTV doesn’t carry the wide selection of NY sports teams that are offered through DIRECTV STREAM “Choice.”
Outside of the NY area, NHL fans can watch the Islanders out-of-market on ESPN+.
