And thats true. When teh NHL was on ESPN they had highlights


pn all the time. Now that their on NBC only you get very few highlights. I do find it interesting though, ESPN is showing more premier league highlights even though NBC own all of those rights as well.
But in the world of college sports there are a couple of counters. 1st, ESPN already allows the SEC to dominate its coverage. I don't know why the other P5 leagues allow it honestly. ESPN can only shut so many folks out before it becomes a regional network (south east). If the BIG does this, I wish the ACC would look to make a similar move with NBC. Secondly, college football and the NHL are different products. ESPN has to pay attention top the Michigans, PSU's and OSU's of the world. The lower profile BIG schools may be affected some by lack of ESPN exposure though.
