BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Buffalo Sabres announced on Monday that they are partnering with FuboTV Inc. to expand the streaming capabilities of over 40 Sabres games into the Niagara region of Southern Ontario, beginning November 27.
The deal marks the first time the Sabres’ MSG broadcast will be available to fans in Southern Ontario since 2015-16.
General Manager Kevyn Adams said on Monday, "Our organization remains committed to broadening the Buffalo Sabres' presence and connecting with fans on a deeper level, and expanding our reach to allow more Sabres fans in Southern Ontario to stream games exclusively with Fubo is a fantastic step in more deeply connecting with our fanbase." He continued to say "We are incredibly grateful for the continued support and partnership with both Fubo and MSG, whose collaboration has been integral in our efforts to bring the spirit of Sabres hockey to a wider audience.”
"Fubo is thrilled to partner with the Buffalo Sabres as their home in Southern Ontario for the next few seasons," said Ben Grad, SVP, of strategic partnerships and operations, Fubo. "As we continue to grow our sports-first streaming platform, it was important for us to super-serve Canadians with NHL games they can't stream anywhere else. This partnership marks Fubo's first hockey team rights in Canada, and we could not be more excited to bring Sabres action to their many fans in and around the Niagara region."
In addition to in-game coverage, the Sabres say Fubo will also stream pre-and post-game coverage of Sabres hockey including pre-game breakdowns, highlights, exclusive interviews, and studio analysis.
Games will be available on Fubo to Niagara region subscribers beginning with Buffalo’s road contest against New York Rangers on Monday night.
