Ladies and Gentlemen,

I can’t believe there’s not a thread devoted to this topic already (maybe there is and i just missed it?).

Prime Video subscribers in Washington, Oregon and Alaska will be able to access all Kraken regional broadcasts with their existing memberships — no additional subscription fee will be required.

Aww man, I didn’t realize Prime broke things down regionally? That’s a bummer.

“Starting in 2024-25, the 70-plus Kraken games that are not broadcast by national rightsholders ESPN and TNT will be available both over-the-air and streaming on Amazon’s Prime Video.”.

I suppose season ticket holders might be pissed that the resale market will likely take a hit, but 70+ KRAKEN games! let’s gooooo!!

Just need UW football next. I've on idea what channels Big 10 games will be on cable wise.

Yes. Spokane and Portland will also both have over the air options as well. I think Alaska too, but I generally tune out Alaska stuff.
