As the television and streaming landscape gets more and more muddled, here's a guide on how to watch every NHL game.

The Carolina Hurricanes will head north to Buffalo for a Wednesday night game against the Sabres. It’s scheduled to start at 6 p.m. ET and you can watch it on TNT and live stream it on DirecTV Stream (FREE trial and discount) or Sling TV (discount). The matchup Wednesday is the season’s first meeting between the two teams.

The Hurricanes continue to dazzle from an analytical standpoint, even if the results haven't been there on the scoreboard lately. However, the Sabres will give Carolina a great chance to grab a W on Wednesday night.
