How to Watch SHL in the US

Looking to watch SHL in the US? The Swedish hockey league, it may not be as great as the NHL, but it does offer great hockey, with players that often end up playing in the NHL, and let’s not forget, the games are at different times, meaning more matches to watch.

...But the SHL isn’t nearly as accessible as the NHL, which we’ll fix in this SHL in the US guide.

What’s Needed to Watch SHL in the US

There are two great options when it comes to SHL.

One is almost fully free, and the second at a cost, but in Swedish, if that’s what you are looking for.

The first method? It’s on a platform called Freesports.tv which is part of a British TV network, and that is the free platform.

The second method is a Swedish platform called C More, showing the SHL in Swedish.

Neither of these are available in the US.

How to Watch Freesports.tv in the US

Since Freesports is a free platform, it isn’t that complicated to unblock.

There are no weird registrations involved.

You just need to look like you are in the UK

...For that, you need a VPN.

 VPN services? They allow you to change your location to be somewhere else, in a space of a few clicks.

The catch? That Freesports.tv must make efforts against VPN services because it doesn’t have the rights to show the content it shows, outside of the UK. And that means that a lot of VPN services don’t work with Freesports.tv.

...But that’s where PrivateVPN comes in as a service with a focus on entertainment. 

  1. Sign up for a PrivateVPN account.
  2. Download the app.
  3. Connect to a UK server.

How to Watch SHL on C More In the US

There are two steps to watching C More outside of Sweden.

  1. Look like you are in Sweden.
  2. Create an account by bypassing the card payment blocks.

If you want to look like you are in Sweden, once again you need to connect to a VPN to do that.

PrivateVPN itself is a Swedish company, and thus naturally works with Swedish services like C More.

  1. Sign up for a PrivateVPN account.
  2. Download the app.
  3. Connect to a Swedish server.

...Provided you already have a C More account, that’s it.

We’ll also go over how to get one if you don’t currently have one⬇️⬇️⬇️.

How to Sign up For C More in the US to Watch SHL

Sign up via the app on your mobile phone.

This is the super simple trick for creating an account outside of the US, on platforms with payment blocks.

Why?

As C More doesn’t take care of mobile payments. Apple and Google do. And they don’t care. 

How to Change Your App Store Region on Android Devices

  1. Connect to a Swedish VPN server.
  2. Open up your Google Play Store.
  3. Press on the 3 bars on the top-left of the screen, and then click on Account.
  4. You will see an option to change your region to be in Sweden. Do it and update your information.
  5. Go back to Account and confirm the change to Sweden.
  6. Restart your Play Store.
  7. Lastly, download and sign up for C More from the app.

How to Change Your App Store Region on Apple Devices

  1. Sign out of your iCloud account, followed by creating a new one with your location set to be in Sweden.
  2. Download the C More app.
  3. While connected to a Swedish VPN server, open the C More app, and sign up for an account.

That’s How to Watch SHL in the US

The great thing about PrivateVPN? You can unblock many other streaming services while using it, whether it’s Canadian DAZN or BBC Player. On up to 6-devices at one time.

Disclaimer: While PrivateVPN has been supporting Swedish services + British services for years, due to the nature of services having to make efforts to prevent VPN services from working, we cannot guarantee non-stop working time at 100% of the time. No VPN can guarantee that.
