Victory+ Sports Network (stylized VICTORY+) is an over-the-top streaming venture created by the Dallas Stars of the NHL to bring their games to local fans for free.[1] In July 2024, the Stars signed a 7-year contract with Calgary-based A Parent Media Co., Inc. (APMC) to create the ad-supported streaming service.[2] Their games had previously been broadcast by Bally Sports Southwest.[2]

In August 2024, the Anaheim Ducks announced that they, too, would be streaming matches directly to local fans via the Victory+ platform and app.[3]
