I thought national ratings for hockey in the US were tiny? I’m not arguing the point, just looking for some real data on this. Has Vegas helped grow the pool of HRR?

I do know the current deal for hockey TV coverage is peanuts so nowhere to go but up. With Disney bundling ESPN+ with their new streaming service, they may be looking for content there. Maybe they could be the pay platform instead of Centre Ice.
