VGK, Scripps Sports Announce Broadcasts in Phoenix, Tucson | Vegas Golden Knights

VEGAS (September 26, 2024) – The Vegas Golden Knights and Scripps Sports announced today, September 26, 55-game broadcast schedules that will bring Golden Knights hockey to fans in the Phoenix and Tucson markets on Arizona 61 and Arizona 58, respectively. Arizona 61 and Arizona 58 are the sister stations of the ABC affiliates in those markets, owned and operated by the E.W. Scripps Company.

Fans throughout the state of Arizona also will have the opportunity to watch every Scripps Sports VGK broadcast through KnightTime+, the official streaming platform of the Vegas Golden Knights. Fans can learn more and subscribe to KnightTime+ at knighttimeplus.com.

“We are thrilled to expand the Realm of fans who can watch our local broadcast and appreciate our partners at Scripps Sports for helping make this a reality,” said Vegas Golden Knights President and CEO Kerry Bubolz. “Having our games available for free over the air, or through KnightTime+, is a win for hockey fans in Arizona.”

Fans in Arizona will be able to follow one of the NHL’s most successful franchises in the Golden Knights, who have qualified for the playoffs in six of their seven seasons, reached the penultimate round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs four times and won the Stanley Cup in 2023.

“As the intense fandom around hockey grows, we know how important it is for the Vegas Golden Knights to reach their expanding fanbase on every device and platform,” said Scripps Sports President Brian Lawlor. “These new Scripps Sports-produced local broadcasts, combined with Knight Time+, will make sure that fans in the Phoenix and Tucson markets never have to miss a game.”

The Golden Knights will celebrate these new broadcasts by hosting youth ice hockey and ball hockey clinics and a VGK watch party on Saturday, October 19 at AZ Ice in Gilbert, AZ. VGK youth hockey staff and members of the VGK Cast will be in attendance.

Events will include ice hockey clinics for ages 5 to 8 (12:30 p.m. PT) and ages 9 to 12 (1:30 p.m. PT), a ball hockey clinic for all ages (12:30 p.m. PT) and a watch party at Park Tavern & Market for the Golden Knights game at Florida (3 p.m. PT). Registration is required for the on-ice clinics and is available here.

This marks the second season of the Golden Knights’ partnership with Scripps Sports to televise non-nationally exclusive games for free over the air, on cable or with a satellite subscription. In addition to Arizona, broadcasts are available in Southern Nevada (Vegas 34), Northern Nevada (NSN), Idaho (Boise 6 and Twin Falls 6) and Montana (MTN).

This is also the second year that the Golden Knights and Scripps Sports have partnered on KnightTime+, the Vegas Golden Knights’ official streaming platform that carries all locally aired games for fans within the team’s television territory.
