I don’t see KTVD on my guide, will I still be able to watch the Nuggets/Avs for free?
Different distributors (cable, satellite, and internet providers) carry local channels in different places on each lineup. KTVD’s distribution or channel position is likely to change between now and the start of the season to give the most fans possible the opportunity to watch games. Stay tuned to 9NEWS, 9NEWS.com, and your local channel guide for more detailed information as the season approaches.
How can I watch Nuggets/Avs games out of state?
A new subscription-based direct-to-consumer platform, Altitude+, will offer all Nuggets and Avalanche games not exclusive to a national network or subject to a league-mandated blackout – at least 60 games per team.
