Jets vs Canucks live stream: Can you watch for free?

Add as a preferred source on Google

A crucial matchup in the battle for the top seed in the West, the Vancouver Canucks host the Winnipeg Jets tonight. Though the Stars are also in contention, the winner of tonight’s all-Canada showdown will take a big step towards securing home-ice advantage in the playoffs.

If you’re looking to watch the game, you’re just in time. It starts at 10:00 p.m. ET, and in the United States it won’t be on TV anywhere, but you can watch a live stream on ESPN+.

The bad news? In the US, the Jets vs Canucks is only available on ESPN+, which doesn’t come with a free trial. The good news? ESPN+ is only $11 per month (or $110 for the year), which is an incredible value if you’re an NHL fan.

For those who live in the United States, a subscription to ESPN+ will get you every single out-of-market NHL game. This weekend alone, there are 13 Saturday games and two Sunday games that you can watch. We’re not going to do the math, but the price/game ratio for a month is miniscule. It’s a no-brainer if you want to watch even a little big of NHL action throughout the season.

There’s more live sports, too–college hockey and other NCAA sports, UFC, boxing, PGA Tour, and if you enjoy soccer, there’s every single game for Bundesliga, La Liga, FA Cup and Copa del Rey. There’s also documentaries, original shows and more on-demand content, so even if you ever stop watching NHL action, there’s plenty to keep you busy.

The Hollywood argument over whether AI belongs in film and television production may already have been overtaken by reality. Netflix has confirmed that its creative partners used generative AI workflows across roughly 300 titles in 2026, with the largest concentration of work happening during post-production.

Keep in mind this number describes AI-assisted production workflows and not 300 completely machine-generated films and shows. Regardless, it does show how quickly the technology has moved beyond isolated experiments.

Spotify is rolling out a new AI-powered conversational feature that lets Premium users talk directly to the app about what they want to hear. Users can type or speak a request and refine the results through follow-up questions instead of manually searching for a song, podcast, or audiobook.

The feature is available from Spotify’s Home and Now Playing screens and works much like a personal audio assistant. It can choose what plays, answer questions about the current track or album, recommend something new, and look through your listening history to provide more personalized responses.
