The Tampa Bay Lightning has entered into a multi-year media rights agreement with Scripps Sports, making it easier for fans in the Tampa Bay area to watch Lightning hockey games for free. This partnership will commence with the start of the 2025-26 NHL season.
This agreement expands Scripps Sports' growing portfolio, which already includes partnerships with the WNBA, NWSL, and other NHL teams like the Vegas Golden Knights and the new Utah Hockey Club. The deal aims to leverage Scripps' local market depth and national broadcast reach.
The addition of the Tampa Bay Lightning to Scripps Sports' lineup further solidifies the company's strategy to capitalize on live sports content. This move is expected to drive viewership and generate new advertising revenue streams for Scripps' local stations.
