The Sports Network and the
National Hockey League have announced a multi-year partnership whereby TSN will be the exclusive, officially licensed global distributor of real-time NHL game statistics to Web sites, broadcasters, arenas, fantasy games, and selected mobile applications.
As the exclusive statistics partner, TSN will market and distribute real- time scores and official NHL stats generated by NHL HITS (Hockey and Information Tracking System), including boxscore data such as goals, assists, points, shots, penalties, time on ice, cumulative season stats for players and teams, player career statistics, league standings and official scoring leaders.
In addition, TSN will market and distribute the "NHL Daily Dose," a daily online video that briefly re-caps NHL action from the night before. Hosted by Carrie Milbank, hostess of NHL.com's popular "The Hockey Show," "NHL Daily Dose" will enable customers to bundle rich NHL media with NHL statistics to comprise a compelling content package to their consumers.
