The 2024 Stanley Cup Finals continue Saturday night with Game 4 of the Florida Panthers vs. Edmonton Oilers match-up. We've put together everything you need to know about how to watch the Stanley Cup Finals, including options that will work for the entirety of the series.
The Panthers currently lead the series following victories in the first three games. While Game 1 was a shutout, Game 2's 4-1 score saw the Oilers walk away with one point. Game 3 was even tighter, with the Panthers winning by just one point in a 4-3 final score, but the Oilers were unable to pull ahead. If the Oilers win Saturday night's Game 4, they'll be able to stay in the competition and fight another day. But if the Panthers win the game, they'll walk away with the Stanley Cup for the first time ever.

How to watch Stanley Cup Finals in the US
Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals will air on ABC on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET in the US. Those without cable can explore a live streaming alternative. At just $10.99 a month, the cheapest option is ESPN+. You can catch all of the 2024 Stanley Cup Finals games here, so this will cover you whether the series goes to Game 4 or all the way to Game 7. This is also the streaming home of select ABC and ESPN games across a variety of sports.
If you'd rather try a cable alternative live TV package, Sling TV and Fubo might be able to help you out tonight. Sling TV allows subscribers to access ABC in select regions by opting for the Sling Orange + Blue for $55 a month, but new users can currently get half off their first month. Sling's local channel coverage is selective, so you should look up which channels are available in your region using your zip code before signing up for a subscription. You can also check out Sling's local channels page for additional details.
At $79.99, Fubo is definitely the more expensive live TV package we're highlighting, but it has pretty broad ABC coverage, in addition to tons of other channels. This is a very sports-friendly live TV package, so if any of your favorite teams outside of hockey are currently in-season, you might be able to watch them here. As always, you should still look up your zip code before subscribing to check that your region has access to ABC and any other channels you're interested in. Right now, new users can get a one-week free trial of Fubo.
How to watch Stanley Cup Finals from anywhere
Those planning to travel outside the US during the Stanley Cup Finals can keep up with their subscriptions using a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs let you alter your device's location so that you can still access your usual apps and websites from anywhere. This option will be best for Americans who are simply traveling abroad at the moment since the services we've highlighted tonight require US forms of payment.
If you're interested in trying out a VPN, we recommend ExpressVPN. It's an easy-to-use option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can find full details in our ExpressVPN review, and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN.
