Bruins Fans Take Note: Tuesday’s Game vs. Maple Leafs Isn’t on NESN — Here’s How to Watch

The Bruins return home Tuesday night for a rivalry matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs at TD Garden.

It’s always a highlight when these two Original Six teams meet and this one should be no different.

Fans planning to tune in on NESN should take note: Tuesday’s game will be airing elsewhere, but pre and post-game coverage will continue as usual.

We’ll explain where and how to watch, plus share puck drop time and each team’s upcoming schedule below.

How to Watch Bruins vs. Maple Leafs

The B’s will host the Leafs on Tuesday night, and the game will air nationally on TNT (with a simulcast on truTV). Folks looking to catch the action but don’t have access to TNT can stream the game on DirecTV, which offers a free trial so you can watch without a charge.

The NHL on TNT national crew is expected to include Kenny Albert, Eddie Olczyk and Keith Jones on the call.

Bruins fans who typically watch on NESN will need to switch networks for this one-night national broadcast.

If You’re in New England

For fans used to watching Bruins games on NESN (or NESN360), here’s how to catch this one nationally:

If you prefer streaming, HBO Max will carry the live simulcast. Be sure to sign in early to avoid any authentication delays.

As a reminder, pre and post-game coverage will remain the same on NESN so flip there before and after the game to stay up to date before puck drop and to get ready for the next game against the Sens in Ottawa.

What Time Is Puck Drop

Puck drop for Bruins- Leafs is set for just after 7:00 p.m. ET. With the game being on national TV, you can expect maybe a 10-minute delay from the top of the clock before things get going at TD Garden.
