The result is a more connected hockey offering spanning national and local coverage across web, social and video.Jay Downton, founder of The Nation Network, said: “We have built incredibly strong local hockey communities over the years, while Daily Faceoff has established itself as a leading destination for hockey fans across North America. Bringing those strengths together is a natural next step for us. We want fans to get the best of both worlds: the local voices and personalities they already know, combined with the reach, reporting and expertise of Daily Faceoff.”Expanded programming across North America The brand expansion comes alongside TNN’s 2026/27 hockey programming lineup, bringing together national Daily Faceoff programming with dedicated coverage across Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal and Ottawa.Daily Faceoff’s national programming includes Morning Cuppa Hockey, Daily Faceoff Live, The Sheet with Jeff Marek and the new weekly DFO Insider, bringing Jeff Marek and David Pagnotta together every Wednesday.The season also introduces several new additions across the network. Mike Halford and Jason Brough join Daily Faceoff Vancouver with the weekday Halford & Brough show, while The Sean Avery Show has launched under HockeyFights. In Montreal, former NHL player Maxim Lapierre will host Hockey With An Accent, marking TNN’s first daily English-language show dedicated to the Montreal market.Existing programming across TNN’s markets will continue throughout the season, including dedicated pre- and post-game coverage, analysis and daily shows covering some of Canada’s largest hockey communities.Connecting fans across platforms The expansion goes beyond scheduled programming.
