If I only listened to SN I wouldn't know that other comparable stars exist outside of McDrai, Matthews, Marner and Nylander.
It's a big league with what, almost 800 active players?
The fixation with a small handful in a couple of specific markets is boring. I want to see more about guys like Kaprizov and kuch who's running away with McDavid's trophy this year.
SN having our rights is also why I knew little of Kuzmenko leading up to the trade. 70+ point rookie season but there was virtually nothing in terms of highlights or a player spot on our broadcasts. Just their two princess teams.
