Nashville Predators and ViewLift to Launch New Direct-To-Consumer Streaming Service Ahead of the NHL Season
The Nashville Predators and ViewLift today announced a multi-year agreement to launch a new direct-to-consumer streaming service for the team, giving fans across Tennessee and beyond access to every locally-carried Predators game starting with the 2026-27 NHL season. The agreement comes after global sports entertainment platform DAZN completed its acquisition of ViewLift last week, and added the Predators to a growing roster of teams and networks, bringing ViewLift's total footprint to 18 U.S. professional sports teams and six Regional Sports Networks nationwide.
