The Chicago Blackhawks play 10 games in December 2026, four at United Center, four on the road and two in Düsseldorf, Germany, according to the National Hockey League (NHL) club schedule. The month opens Thursday, Dec. 3, at 7 p.m. Central Time (CT), which is 8 p.m. Eastern Time (ET), at Nashville, and ends Tuesday, Dec. 29, at home against Vegas.

The source is the NHL’s club schedule feed for Chicago, read Nov. 12, 2026. It gives every start in UTC, so we converted the times to CT, which is Chicago time, and ET, and worked out the weekdays. The U.S. column lists Chicago Sports Network, the Blackhawks’ home channel in the feed, and the other U.S. outlets it names. The feed lists broadcasters as of that date, and they can change. A one-page printable follows the table.

Blackhawks December 2026 game times with TV

Chicago Sports Network is listed for nine of the 10 games, by our count from the feed; the Dec. 8 game at Pittsburgh is on Turner Network Television (TNT) and HBO Max in the U.S. instead. In Canada, the feed lists a channel for six games: Sportsnet for the Dec. 6 and 27 home games, Sportsnet+ and Télé-Diffuseurs Associés (TVA) Sports for Dec. 8, TSN3 for Dec. 10 at Winnipeg, and TSN5 and Réseau des sports (RDS) for both Düsseldorf games. “None listed” means the feed shows no Canadian broadcaster.

What time are the Blackhawks games in Düsseldorf?

Both games are against the Ottawa Senators at the Düsseldorf arena. NHL.com’s German event page lists the city and the dates, Dec. 18 and Dec. 20, and the games are part of the 2026 NHL Global Series. The feed marks the arena as a neutral site, lists Chicago as the visitor on Dec. 18 and as the home team on Dec. 20, and gives the starts in UTC. Our conversion:

GameTime (CT)Time (ET)Time (CET, Düsseldorf)
Fri., Dec. 18Noon1 p.m.7 p.m.
Sun., Dec. 207 a.m.8 a.m.2 p.m.

CET is Central European Time, one hour ahead of UTC. The full Global Series schedule, including the Helsinki games, is in our NHL Global Series 2026 story, and the Senators December schedule has the other side of both games.

How many Blackhawks games are at home in December 2026?

Four at United Center: Dec. 6, 12, 27 and 29. Our own count from the feed: four road games (Nashville, St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Winnipeg) and two neutral-site games in Düsseldorf. The first two road games come on consecutive nights, Dec. 3 and 4.

The feed shows no game on Dec. 13 to Dec. 17 or from Dec. 21 to Dec. 26. Another Chicago team’s month is in our Bulls December schedule.
