The two sides have agreed on a seven-year contract that includes three Stanley Cup Finals, two people familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. The NHL received $350 million in broadcast revenue from NBC ($250 million) and Disney Streaming Services ($100 million for digital rights) this season. The upcoming deals will average $635 million per year ($410 million from Disney and $225 million from Turner). When the Stanley Cup Finals air on Turner in 2023, it will mark the first time since 1994 that they will be only on cable. ___More AP NHL: https://apnews.com/hub/NHL and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsLoading...
