Stephen A is the best in the business, really wish he'd have Shannon Sharpe as his partner. Those 2 are just gold, I can't stand Skip Bayless, Max Kellerman and Nick Wright (who is just atrocious). The guy who Im starting to really enjoy watching is Brandon Marshall, I think hes got a bright future in media. He's got some very good takes and hes entertaining 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKNuck96 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 With no ESPN+ in the UK I’m interested to see where they go with the international markets. Will they sell off the rights to third parties like currently some of which are little known sports broadcasters with appalling services. Im hoping that in the UK Disney add it to the Disney plus packet (even if it’s a paid add on, as we don’t have Hulu either) as it would be nice to have it tied into a normal service provider and not have to buy a mega sports package that show a a tiny bit of hockey and shed load of sports I don’t watch.

Disney have owned ABC since 1995 and at that time ABC owned 80% of ESPN so Disney have owned ESPN for 26 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackcanuck Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 (edited) U.S. NHL TV rights more than doubled from NBC/Disney $325M/yr to $625M/yr with ESPN/Turner Sports Edited April 27, 2021 by Mackcanuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogers Sportsnet contract is 5.23 billion over 12 years on all Canadian platforms. That’s an additional $435M per year there (expires 2025/2026) So the yearly income from both countries will be: $625M US + 435M CDN !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it'll lead to more hockey coverage on their social medias, popular shows (first take), etc. ESPN has the opportunity to expose the NHL to new fans. and also expand the teams they will cover. The way NBC covers the NHL it seems the league only consists of 7 or 8 teams, Caps, Pens, Flyers, Bruins, Hawks, Rangers, and Red Wings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Colt 45s Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 People like to talk money. Back in the mid nineties I worked for the Calgary Flames. Each playoff game we almost sold a million dollars worth of beer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why the various major leagues pushed hard to have games broadcast even with no fans in arenas..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
