(Bottom of article)

I personally think it would be awsome for the NHL to leave ESPN and move to TNN assuming NBC as rumored makes a joint bid to air severl regular season games and conference finals and the stanley cup finals.

Thoughts? Good for the NHL or bad for the NHL?

"TNN" won't exist by the end of the month... They are changing their name to "Spike TV".

I know. It's still going to be the same channel, same shows, same people working for them with a different name. They are trying to attract people from 18-35 year olds and they might be willing to spend the big money on the NHL. We'll see.

And to think, it started out as The Nashville Network...

How can being on tv be a bad thing? The worst that could happen is they stay with ESPN, who only shows them anytime they can't show college b-ball, high school b-ball, caber tossing and Rick Schroeder.
