I've read elsewhere that the NHL were asking stupid money for the UK rights so it was not even remotely viable for ESPN or Sky to consider buying them. Premier Sports decided to acquire them and since then everyone has lost out. The sport has achieved an even lower profile than it had before and Premier Sports has lost money on the deal.
