Frequently asked questions

Where can I watch NHL hockey in Chicago?
13 venues in Chicago have a real, checkable signal that they show the NHL: the venue's own post or website, a club or fan-group listing, or local coverage. Every listing on this page links back to that source.
What is the best hockey bar in Chicago?
The sections on this page split them by what the evidence says: 7 are fan bars or game-day home for a specific team, which is where the crowd and the sound will be; 6 show the NHL week in, week out.
When are the next NHL games?
Next up: 2026 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic: Montreal Canadiens at Winnipeg Jets on Sun 25 Oct 2026 (time to be confirmed); NHL Global Series Finland: Seattle Kraken vs Carolina Hurricanes (Game 1) on Thu 12 Nov 2026 (time to be confirmed); NHL Global Series Finland: Carolina Hurricanes vs Seattle Kraken (Game 2) on Sat 14 Nov 2026 (time to be confirmed). Puck drop is an evening slot across North America and the small hours in Europe, so the venues that matter are the ones that stay open for the third period.
How is this NHL list for Chicago put together?
It is built from public evidence only: a venue's own posts and website, club and fan-group listings, and local press. We keep hospitality venues only, drop anything we cannot source, and refresh the Chicago list as new evidence appears.
