ESPN isn't renewing their TV deal, probably because hockey ratings hvae been in the toilet for the last couple of years, bottoming out with last year's snoozefest masquerading as the Stanley Cup playoffs. The NHL has a deal with NBC now, which is apparently based on revenue sharing and is similar to the deal that arena football has.
