The New York Rangers, having secured a 5-3 victory against the Utah Hockey Club, are set to host the Columbus Blue Jackets at Madison Square Garden. Both teams have recently secured wins, with the Rangers holding a record of 21-20-3 while the Blue Jackets stand at 22-17-6. Fans looking to watch the game can do so at 7 p.m. on MSG Network and NHL Network. Key challenges remain for viewers due to a contract dispute affecting Optimum customers, limiting access to these channels.
As MSG Networks grapples with a contract dispute with Altice USA, many Optimum customers find themselves without access to crucial New York sports broadcasts. This blackout impacts not only Rangers and Knicks fans but also Islanders and Devils supporters, leaving a significant portion of the fanbase unable to watch their teams compete. The conflict arose when the contract expired on December 31, 2024, without any agreement on renewal. As a response, Optimum customers have been encouraged to explore streaming options through Fubo or other agreements.
