How to watch Philadelphia Flyers vs. Edmonton Oilers in the US

If you don't have access to ESPN through a cable provider, there are a few different options to explore when it comes to live streaming the network. While you won't be able to stream the game through ESPN+, you can catch it through a live TV package like Sling TV, Fubo, or DirecTV Stream. All three of these services are top month-to-month cable alternatives that made the cut in our guide to the best sports streaming services.

Sling TV is the cheapest option tonight. Plans start at $40/month, but you can get your first month for just $15 right now. You'll need to subscribe to the Sling Orange plan to access ESPN. This tier also includes ESPN2, ESPN3, ESPN4K, and 31 other live channels.

How to watch Philadelphia Flyers vs. Edmonton Oilers from anywhere

You don't need to miss out on the game just because you're traveling away from home. You can keep up with your usual streaming subscriptions from anywhere with the help of a VPN. Short for virtual private networks, VPNs enable people to temporarily change their device's virtual location (and give their cybersecurity a boost, too). Since the services we've recommended above require US forms of payment, this option will work best for Americans who are simply traveling outside of the US at the moment.

Time and again, ExpressVPN is our go-to recommendation. It's user-friendly, even for beginners, and comes with a built-in 30-day money-back guarantee. Check out our ExpressVPN review for more information, and keep reading to learn how to use a VPN tonight.
