high level ice hockey leagues that stream free on youtube

wanted to compile a list into a post for people to reference.

PWHL - Professional Women's Hockey League, top pro women's league in USA/Canada, streams free everywhere outside Canada (sorry, Canada) (Proton VPN is a great free option), 12 teams, November - May, website - eliteprospects - wikipedia

SDHL - Swedish Women's Hockey League, top pro women's league, lotta players going back and forth between here and the PWHL, 10 teams, September - March, website - eliteprospects - wikipedia

EWHL/AWHL* - European Women's Hockey League & Austrian Women's Hockey League, this is sorta two leagues intertwined. i need to research more to understand, but they both stream on this channel, don't ask me how many teams, MANY countries which is pretty cool,September - March, website (shared) - eliteprospects (EWHL / AWHL) - wikipedia (shared) *for some reason it's not letting me link the channel, but going on youtube and searching either ewhl or awhl will get you there

AWIHL - Australian Women's Ice Hockey League, top Australian women's league, 6 teams, November - March, website - eliteprospects - wikipedia

NZWIHL - New Zealand Women's Ice Hockey League, top women's Aotearoa hockey league, 4 teams, May - August, website - eliteprospects - wikipedia

NZIHL - New Zealand Men's Ice Hockey League, top men's Aotearoa hockey league, 5 teams, May - August, website - eliteprospects - wikipedia

Special Mention: the ЖХЛ/ZhHL, the Russian Women's Hockey League, used to stream free on youtube but hasn't the past couple years due to a youtube ban. You can still find their old game streams on the channel.

Note that some leagues are going to have streaming services outside youtube that they use, which may or may not be free and/or require a VPN, but in this post I wanted to focus on youtube since that's what most people are going to default to.

Also note that there are lots of other ways to watch hockey on youtube. There's country-specific youtube channels that stream multiple leagues and/or international matchups (Ukraine as an example), there are individual teams that host their own channels (multiple Federal Prospects Hockey League teams stream their own games), there's some random beer leagues that stream their own games (there's an Australian 4v4 league called the Kondos Ice Hockey League), FloHockey youtube channel has random free game streams from their collection of leagues, and lots of channels post whatever games from various leagues, including full NHL games. None of these are what I was focusing on in this post. Perhaps I can create a follow-up with further links to all of that, idk.

Let me know if there's any you've found that I can add here!
