The Florida Panthers are reeling after a quick 2-0 fall to the Vegas Golden Knights in the Stanley Cup Finals. Game 3 between the NHL's top skaters will be contested in Florida on Thursday, June 8 at 8 p.m. ET. Wondering how you can tune in once the puck slaps the ice? Read ahead, and we'll show you how to watch the Panthers vs. Golden Knights in game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Panthers fans are hopeful the home rink advantage will help their team narrow the gap. No one expected the eighth-seeded team to make it this far, but championship hopes swelled after not only dodging the Carolina Hurricanes' vortex but sweeping it clean off the map 4-0 in the Eastern Conference final. This is the Panthers' second trip to the final dance, but neither team has managed to win the Stanley Cup in prior seasons.

How to watch Panthers vs. Golden Knights game 3 in the US

TNT is the exclusive broadcast partner for the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals. The network is included in most cable and satellite packages, so check your local guide once game time arrives. TNT's mobile app allows you to watch on the go, but you'll need to sign in using your TV provider's credentials.

If you don't have cable, you can watch the Stanley Cup Finals using a live TV streaming service. Our top pick for most people is Sling TV. New subscribers can get their first month of Sling Orange (which includes TNT) for just $20, normally $40.

Between games, you can view more than 30 channels on Sling Orange, including ESPN, Disney, AMC, and TBS. All Sling plans include 50 hours of cloud DVR recording, handy for recording games you might miss.

You'll also find TNT on other services like Hulu + Live TV. That service costs $69.99 per month, however, so Sling is the better deal if you just need a month and don't fancy Hulu's on-demand movies and shows.
