The 2024 NHL All-Star game is all set to go live this weekend. It will be held from February 1 to February 3. All-Star Weekend will be held at Scotiabank Arena, home of the Toronto Maple Leafs. This is the city’s first time hosting the All-Star Game since 2000 and its ninth time overall. Here’s how to watch the 2024 NHL All-Star games on FireStick without cable.
Attention FireStick Users
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor their users' online activities. If you use third-party streaming apps on your Fire TV Stick, you should always use a good FireStick VPN and hide your identity so your movie-viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

NHL All-Star Games Preview
NHL All-Star game includes a group of selective National Hockey League players. It takes place during the regular NHL season. The NHL All-Star game features three mini-games, and that way; the NHL can bring all the best players from each team under one roof.
The NHL All-Star game will have participation from four teams. These four teams are selected based on geographical location Atlantic, Metropolitan, Pacific, and Central. In the first round, we will see Atlantic going against Metropolitan (Eastern Conference teams) and then the remaining teams in the Western Conference.
The winners from each game will compete against each other in the final round to complete the game. If a game gets tied at the end, we will have a shootout to get a winner.
Each game will follow the same NHL rules, and every team will feature six forwards, two goal tenders, and three defensemen.

Watch NHL All-Star Game Without Cable
ESPN, ABC, and NBC have official rights to stream NHL games in the US. However, you only have two options for the All–Star game: ESPN and ABC. Since In 2022, Disney signed a long-term agreement with the NHL to share hockey coverage.
I will list streaming services with ESPN and ABC channels in the library. You can use the mentioned official apps on all smart devices, including FireStick, to watch NHL All-Star games without cable.
Another advantage is these apps are already available from the Amazon App Store, and it won’t take a minute or two to install them on FireStick. Let’s check the official apps, shall we?
Watch NHL All-Star Game in the US Without Cable
You must have guessed it by now. I will start the list with a Disney-owned ESPN+ streaming service.

Watch NHL All-Star Game in Canada Without Cable
NHL is immersively popular in the Canadian region as well. There are various ways to watch the NHL All-Star Game in Canada, but I would advise going with Sportsnet.
Sportsnet has an online streaming service called Sportsnet+ in Canada, and a native app is available from the Amazon App Store. The Sportsnet+ plan is priced at CA$20 per month. Apart from the NHL All-Star Game, you can also watch all of the NBA and MLB content without cable.
Sportsnet+ has another plan called Premium that includes out-of-market hockey games, WWE Network, and more for CA$35 per month.

How to Stream NHL All-Star Game for Free (Official Apps)
It’s early 2024, and to attract new users to the platform, most streaming services offer a free trial to test out the service, content, and overall streaming quality.
You need to be a user with a new email ID while signing up for these services. That will make you eligible for a free trial.
YouTube TV promises a 2-week trial, while fuboTV is advertising a 7-day free trial to new users. Sign up for any of these services and enjoy the NHL All-Star Game for free.
The only issue is, these services are limited to the US region only. You must use ExpressVPN to overcome geo-restrictions and access these apps.
Watch the NHL All-Star Game from Anywhere
If you are an NHL fan living outside of key markets like the US, Canada, and the UK, you are out of options to watch the NHL All-Star Game. You must use ExpressVPN to connect to one of the US or Canadian servers and watch the game using the apps above.
