So PPs become 4 on 3? Could be interesting and maybe give a second career to players that feel like they are getting squeezed out of the nhl. Doubt it works in american market considering how the nhl already has a hard time. I would not be ssurprised if all the games were broadcast on amazon prime or something similar.

Oh boy. There we go. PIF now eyeing pro hockey in North America. Next will be the big three. They created a mess in golf. Let’s see what they will do to North American pro hockey.

Hmmmm, wasn't aware at first the Saudi were behind this one.....kind of suck as they will go after NHLer. They have the money. Of course, we're not talking about the top players, but it's a business in the end and some guys in the NHL usually earning 1-2-3 millions could potentially get more in that league.

The question is how seriously professional hockey players will take that sports cause....it's not really hockey.

I personally have zero interest in it but it might be fun for kids to watch

This will last for about 5 seconds. A lot of ahl teams can barely draw fans and they expect this will? Plus, I didn’t realize people suddenly had more disposable income for this, cuz I sure don’t.

Alright then I take that back as I don't give a f*** about that league.


They're not just doing shootouts...

They're taking the 2nd worst thing
I’m in no way defending this, but I’d imagine the rules and rink layout will be different so that teams aren’t constantly exiting the zone to line change and keep possession. On a side note, Being a goalie will probably be rough.

Saudi Arabia is funding it.
Figures.

Look at LIV. No one watches, yet…

They just want to disrupt the market. Their end-game is to be part of the big show. It is working in golf.
