Lol.
Grant Wahl is one of the most enormous tools on Earth.
Hes not wrong on this one, though.
No, you're absolutely right about that. ESPN is the worst.
espn is very good to the mls
we all know espn covers the sports they have the rights to, hence the dearth of any sort of coverage of the nhl. maybe they done em dirty here but footbawl is still king.
ESPN had the rights to the NHL for a very long time, and they NEVER even slightly prioritized it on their flagship entity, Sportscenter. They could have led the way in increasing interest in hockey - while at the same time helping themselves earn more money - and they failed miserably. They allowed their smug anchors, who have always thought they were cute for not caring about hockey (and soccer), to totally marginalize it.
I used to particularly like when a great play like Hart's save against the devils was a #8 on top 10, and a alley-oop with no defenders back would be #1.
