The Calgary Flames are back on Sportsnet+ for a second straight Monday night, and that is the biggest detail for fans trying to plan their evening around Flames Vs Sharks. Tonight’s meeting with the San Jose Sharks will stream exclusively on Sportsnet+ at 8 p.m. ABT, making this another game that will not air on traditional television.
How to watch Flames Vs Sharks
If you are a TV subscriber without the right package, this one comes with an extra cost. Sportsnet+ offers access for $12.99 a month, while the premium plan is listed at $34.99 per month or $269.99 per year. That matters because this is the second of eight games this season that will be exclusive to Sportsnet+, so tonight is part of a larger shift in how some Flames games are being delivered to viewers.
Last week, Calgary made its streaming-only Monday Night Hockey debut on Sportsnet+ against the Toronto Maple Leafs, so this is not a one-off scheduling quirk. It is the second straight Monday that the Flames are off traditional television, and that gives tonight’s matchup a very different viewing setup than a standard NHL broadcast.
What this means for fans
The broader picture is simple: not every Monday night will be available the same way, and this one joins a small but notable list of exclusive Sportsnet+ games. Amazon’s Prime Video also holds exclusive rights for some Wednesday Night Hockey games, which adds another layer to the shifting national broadcast landscape. For Flames fans, the immediate answer is straightforward — if you want to watch Calgary against San Jose tonight, Sportsnet+ is the place to go.
And with Macklin Celebrini in the lineup discussion for the Sharks matchup tonight, there is a little more reason to pay attention. The game is not just another date on the schedule. It is another reminder that for some NHL nights, access now depends as much on the platform as the puck drop.
