Step 1
Ask your friends if they already have an online subscription to the NHL. There are several services which provide viewers the opportunity to watch hockey games for a flat fee. However, many of these programs do not have a limit on the number of computers that can watch games at one time. So if your friends are feeling generous and if you get their permission, you can watch NHL action for free.

Step 2
Search the Internet for generous souls if your friends do not have subscriptions or are not willing to give you their information. It takes some work, but there are people out there, normally on blog postings, who are willing to share their subscriber info at no charge so you can enjoy NHL hockey for free.

Step 3
Go to the NHL's official website, which allows you access to watch your NHL games (see Resources below). Click on NHL Livewire and enter your log-in information and password. A new page will load with the NHL Livewire service. On the right side of your screen, click on the game you want to watch, and it will load in real time.
-
Step 4
Choose the game you want to watch. Most of the hockey websites make navigation easy. Depending on what games are being played live and that system’s archives of old games, you should simply click an icon or a screen shot in order to bring up the game of your choice.

Step 5
Enlarge the shot to fill up your entire screen so it will be similar to watching the game on a television.
