frisky Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 Nothing to do particularly with the Sabres but came across this interesting interview with a VP of Versus on their deal with the NHL. Fox Video Here is an interesting graphic they put up though. Only 2 mil per team from the NHL TV deals...pretty pathetic compared to the other sports. MLB and NBA rights are 11.66 times bigger. The NFL is 67 times bigger. Talk about small fish. I think in sports there's only really a big 3 sports and then you got hockey languishing in the back somewhere. Oh, and some over at Fox needs to use spell-check.
