NHL Fans Left Upset After League’s $7.7 Billion TV Deal Announcement: “Ruined my day”

With the playoffs approaching and the NHL season in full swing, the league is offering some crazy moments to its fans and viewers. But it won’t be more surprising to look at the game-changing bombshell the NHL just dropped! A massive 12-year, $7.7 billion media rights deal with Rogers Communications. Yes, you heard that right!

For Canadian viewers, it’s a step taken to reshape their experiences in cheering for favorite teams. This means that Rogers now has control over national broadcasts. So, does that mean the CBC and TSN would also see their coverage getting slashed? Well, with the league celebrating the news, fans have definitely expressed their disappointment.

The news was broken by Allan Walsh on X, who shared, “Breaking! 12 years, $7.7 Billion.” And fans took no time to vent their frustration! One of them openly called it–“great. 12 more years of pain,’ a pure disappointment rather than any exciting news!
