I watch just as much hockey as ever if not more with Centre Ice / NHL Live and now SN Now.

Granted I have no kids and a lot of free time.

About the only thing I find I watch less of are Oiler games as they come across as paid advertising for McDavid.

There's plenty about the presentation of the league that bothers me but I blame Sportsnet for that. Feels like they provide less than I got with NHL Live.

As for ratings down in the States, there's a good article on the Athletic about what has gone into that this year. Not as bad as the news makes it out to be. Not great, but not as bad
