  • Toronto Raptors - 3
  • Utah Jazz - 3
  • Memphis Grizzlies - 2
  • Atlanta Hawks - 1
  • Charlotte Hornets - 1
  • Indiana Pacers - 1

10 teams with no games at all, including large markets like New York and Chicago.
They will almost always go with either one or both of a) popularity and b) how well the team is doing. So, I think for us to really get some TNT we’re gonna have to be a top tier team.

I guess this will include streaming on HBO Max.
Does TNT ever broadcast the NBA Finals? If so, are games also shown on a broadcast network as well?

No the ESPN/ABC part of that contract has them all. I think they are all on ABC. TNT isn't related to a broadcast network (except for a stake in the CW, but doubt they'd put finals games there). HBO/CNN/CN/TBS are the other main Warner TV properties. I'd guess HBO Max starts streaming NBA and NHL games soon and would be part of this deal.

You would think the league would want the Final on an over-the-air network, but I guess it also depends on what the networks want to do too. Warner does own a piece of The CW, but it probably wouldn't bring in more viewers than TNT does.

Wow didn’t expect ESPN and TNT to be the only ones left standing when the dust finally settled.

It will be interesting to hear the numbers because it sounds like TNT swooped in at the last minute with a big bid to overtake Fox.

reportedly worth $225 million per year

Turner Sports picked up the remaining package of NHL media rights as part of a deal worth up to $225M per year. The agreement will push the NHL’s rights-fee haul to an average $625M per year when combined with ESPN’s package announced last month.

Is that a big/small number or about as expected?

That seems like pretty good coin for the NHL. The NBC deal was roughly $200 million per, signed ten years ago.

Previous deal was about $200 mil? $425 mil increase is just over 200 per year to players. Once we get back to normal cap world this works out around $6 mil cap increase. Depends on how long it takes to get fans back in building and how many years players have to pay back owners but in 2 or 3 years the cap could be over 90 mil. The flames need to plan for this during retool

NHL rights revenue will more than double from an average of $300M/year to $625M/year.
Old Deal: NBC pays $200M/year, and Disney Streaming Services pays $100M/year.
New Deal: ESPN pays $400M/year, and Turner pays $225M/year.

Crazy to think the NFL will be getting $10 billion per year for the next 10 years from tv/streaming. That's over 16 times more money.

Even the NBA is getting $2.7 billion per year.

Pre-pandemic, I believe the NHL was hoping to get 1/3 of what the NBA is getting (somewhere between $800 million and $1 billion), so this isn't as good as that.

Who could be the NHL version of Charles Barkley and Shaq?

Likeable People
Elite Players
More Outgoing Personalities with some character

Two names that came to mind right away were Iggy and Chris Pronger (he's not as likeable but is a good personality). A guy like Joe Thornton feels like he would be great at it too once he retires.

I had no idea DIsney was paying $100MM per year to what, show a few games on espn+? I'm surprised it was that much.

I wonder if there will be some more $'s trickling in from other streaming deals before said and done.

I also assume these prior numbers don't include revenue from the Centre Ice deal in the US. If the ESPN deal includes carriage of non network games on espn+, that kind of kills Centre Ice, NHL tv or whatever it goes by.

IMO it's not just those guys and their funny personalities, but Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith etc. that are just excellent at their jobs.
