For real. Hockey isn't all that popular compared to the other major sports and you never really hear people going out of their way to shit on hockey

Is that true? Regardless I'm sure NHL gets much higher metrics in TV and web viewership

Average attendance in NHL is somewhere around 16k, MLS in 2021 was 22,800 so less, but decently close.

NHL 2021 tv average viewership was 361,000 and MLS was 285,000 so more, but decently close.

NHL tv deal is 225m, MLS is 250m.

Looks like most metrics I pull are pretty damn close.
