World Juniors live streams: How to watch 2024 hockey games without cable in USA, Canada image

The 2024 World Juniors are here. Ten countries are in Sweden for the next couple of weeks as a gold medal and global bragging rights are up for grabs. 

The annual tournament features the top U20 NHL prospects from around the globe. From first-round selections to potential picks in the upcoming 2024 NHL Draft, this competition gives the future of the NHL their biggest platform to date. 

No country has three-peated at the World Juniors since the Canadians ripped off four in a row during the late 2000s. Canada is looking to change that in 2024, as the maple leaf earned gold in 2023 and 2022. 

The action begins on Dec. 26 and is set to run for 11 days in Gothenburg, Sweden. 

The Sporting News has cord cutters covered on how to watch the 2024 World Juniors without cable.
