Tonight, the Boston Bruins are set to take on the Florida Panthers in Game 5 of their NHL Playoffs series, with the Panthers holding a commanding 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. For the Bruins, this game is a do-or-die situation, as defeat would mean elimination from the playoffs.
Scheduled for May 14, 2024, at 7 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT), Game 5 will be broadcasted on ESPN and streamed on Sling TV, along with other platforms. For viewers without access to ESPN through their cable subscription or those who have opted out of traditional cable services, there are alternative ways to catch the action.
Sling TV offers a cost-effective streaming option for NHL playoffs, requiring a subscription to the Orange + Blue tier. This tier not only grants access to playoff games but also includes 50 hours of cloud-based DVR recording space, ideal for saving today’s crucial championship game.
While the regular price for Sling’s Orange + Blue tier is $60 per month, the platform is currently running a promotional offer, providing a $25 discount on the first month’s subscription. This brings the cost down to $35 for the initial month, with the flexibility to cancel at any time.
It’s important to note that Sling TV does not carry CBS, meaning viewers won’t have access to CBS-aired programming, such as upcoming NFL games. To access these games, as well as PGA golf, UEFA Champions League, and more live sports, a subscription to Paramount+ with Showtime is recommended. Paramount+ with Showtime is priced at $12 per month after a one-week free trial.
