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.

Christopher Nolan says not owning a smartphone helps him think better

Christopher Nolan has spent his career embracing cutting-edge filmmaking technology while resisting one of the most common gadgets on the planet: the smartphone. The Oscar-winning director behind Oppenheimer, Inception, and the upcoming The Odyssey says his decision isn't about rejecting technology altogether. It's about protecting something he believes has become increasingly rare - time to think.

In an interview with The Telegraph ahead of the premiere of The Odyssey, Nolan explained that he still doesn't own a smartphone, despite living in a world where QR codes, digital tickets, and messaging apps have become everyday necessities. His reasoning, however, is far more practical than philosophical.
