It’ll cost local fans $19.99 a month or $99.99 a year to watch the Minnesota Wild during the 2026-27 season, as the team’s games will be available on Prime Video and across yet-to-be-announced cable and satellite channels.

“Fans within the Minnesota Wild local broadcast territory can watch Wild games on Prime Video by purchasing either a monthly ($19.99) or annual ($99.99) subscription,” the team announced Wednesday.

Additionally, the Wild are launching Wild+. We’ve known about it for quite some time, but if you’re not familiar with it, it’s similar to the Minnesota Twins’ do with Twins TV in that the team will work with the league to distribute Wild games on Prime Video, cable, satellite, and over-the-air television.

In short, if you sign up for Wild+ for the monthly or annual fee, you’ll be able to watch them play on Prime Video or through your cable or satellite provider. The only mystery is what channel Wild+ will be found on cable and satellite providers.

If you’re already paying for the sports package through your cable or satellite provider, you won’t need to pay more for Wild+, according to Judd Zulgad.

This will be like Twins TV so if you get the sports package on Xfinity, for instance, you don’t also need Wild TV, unless you want to stream games. Wolves won’t have that option. https://t.co/PQ3B1gBi4A

We also know that Wild+ will carry 67 games and the first round of the playoffs. The other 17 regular-season games will be exclusively broadcast by the NHL’s national partners (ABC, ESPN, ESPN+/Hulu, and TNT).

If you’re outside of the local area, Wild+ won’t be available to you. Instead, you’ll have to catch Wild games via NHL Center Ice or by subscribing to NHL Power Play on ESPN. NHL Center Ice costs $69.99 for the season, and NHL Power Play, via the ESPN app, is going to cost $13.99 per month or $139.99 per year.

The Wild’s broadcast team will remain the same. Anthony LaPanta is on play-by-play, Ryan Carter is the lead analyst, and Kevin Gorg is the top rink-side reporter. Katie Storm and Wes Walz will host the pregame and postgame shows, while Alex Stalock and Lou Nanne will occasionally join as analysts.
