I don't think ESPN has much interest, if any, in hockey. Hockey is a hard sell for a national network in the US. Your networks would rather show football and basketball, two of the most boring sports in the world, which take forever to play because of all the timeouts and stoppages in play. Heck, your national networks would rather show car racing than hockey. And what can be more exciting than watching cars go around and around on an oval track.
