The Dallas Stars have partnered with A Parent Media Co. Inc. to launch VICTORY+, a streaming service that will broadcast all regional games for free starting next season. This move comes after ending their agreement with Diamond Sports Group and Bally Sports Southwest, addressing the long-standing issue of fans struggling to watch games on certain platforms. VICTORY+ will be accessible on various devices for fans in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas, offering an ad-supported model for local viewers. This innovative streaming approach marks a significant shift in sports distribution, setting a new standard for in-market game broadcasts in the NHL and potentially influencing other teams to follow suit.
