Professional hockey is at an inflection point 🏒 2,541 Miles. That’s the distance the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers travel back-n-forth to face each other in the NHL Finals, setting a new record for the longest distance ever traveled between two teams in the Stanley Cup Finals. The 2024 NHL Finals have captivated viewers, setting record-breaking TV ratings and some of the highest attendance numbers in history. With 15+ teams operating at 100% capacity, or 97% capacity across the 36 host arenas, it's clear that professional hockey is at an all-time high. Looking ahead, the NHL is gearing up for the in-season 2025 NHL 4 Nations Face-Off, building on off increased fan engagement. Team sponsorship revenue surged by 23% year-over-year during the 2022-23 season, and another 10% during the 2023-2024 season, outpacing many other major U.S. sports leagues. These upward trends are expected to continue to expand the NHL’s fanbase (internationally) and continue to grow sponsorship and investment opportunities in the future. 💭 It will be interesting to see how the NHL can leverage this momentum for future growth and how investors can be a part of it. #privatecredit #privateequity #sportsmediaentertainment

Combining passions for Sport, Business and Teaching, I want to provide high school students with a unique opportunity to learn about the exciting and growing world of Sports Business.
Strategic Collaborations, Influencers, Novel Expressions of Sport, & Limited Edition Products all come together in this example to help drive the National Hockey League (NHL) All Star game to new height in merchandise sales. Justin Bieber performed live for the first time in 2 years NHL All Star weekend. The drew house colab jerseys added streetwear inspired trends to the jerseys in bold primary colors. A fun All Star Thursday, which included the All Star draft, gave product room to breathe and extends the fan journey. The NHL will follow this up with fresh looks for the Stadium Series that will add aesthetic performance and heat up local rivalries for those unique games. https://lnkd.in/gj2XRsCG Sports Business Classes - - It's not often that Hockey Jerseys capture the attention of non-hockey fans. Think of other sports, especially growing sports. What could other leagues be doing to maximize their impact when it comes to combining amazing or unique on field/court performance with amazing or unique product? While it is fun to dream big, next challenge is to think of how this strategy could work with a local sports organization, college, high school or youth sports team. Get comfortable thinking about how to maximize the moments.
The National Hockey League (NHL) set a record for All-Star merchandise sales over the weekend in Toronto, shattering a mark that had stood since the 2016 festivities in Nashville. The addition of a third night of events this year, dubbed NHL All-Star Thursday, helped bolster merchandise sales at Scotiabank Arena. The league also appears to have benefitted from its collaboration with singer Justin Bieber’s drew house brand.

The Florida Panthers first title in league history concluded a series of significant gains for the NHL throughout the season. A 36% boost in U.S. ratings for the Stanley Cup Final to an average of 3.6 million through the first six games. An average of 1.3 million U.S. viewers per game for the first three rounds of the playoffs, up by 14% from a year ago and the best such figure since 1996. Record-level attendance in the regular season of 22.56 million, with games on average played to 97% venue capacity. Another league record for annual revenue of $6.2 billion, boosted by that attendance total, as well as gains in media and sponsorship. What had been looking like a drama-free wipeout of a series culminated in a Game 7. The last Game 7 of a Stanley Cup Final, in 2019 between the Blues and Bruins, drew an average TV audience of 8.7 million and set a mark as the most-watched NHL game on record. #DrexelSBIZ #SportBusiness #NHL #StanleyCup #FloridaPanthers #EdmontonOilers #Game7 #Hockey

The only thing more impressive than the players' soon-to-be-grown playoff beards is the total at the bottom of the NHL balance sheet this year. ▪ The NHL playoffs are kicking off this weekend, but the league is already set to walk away as the real winner — though it won’t be hoisting a silver cup — after raking in a record US$6.2 billion this season thanks to a number of lucrative sponsorship deals. ▪ The NHL has long been the underperforming younger sibling of the four major sports leagues, but thanks to some savvy dealmaking and marketing (and top-tier talent on the ice), the league is reaping the rewards of appealing to a wider demographic. More on this here: https://lnkd.in/g53PqzCt
