    The NHL and Rogers Communications have come to terms on a 12-year, $4.9 billion broadcast rights agreement that will make Rogers the exclusive broadcast and multimedia partner of the NHL in Canada. This grants the company exclusive rights to all NHL content on all platforms and languages. In Canadian dollars, the deal is worth $5.2 billion.

    This deal comes on the heels of the NHL’s 10-year, $2 billion United States rights agreement with NBC Sports Group that was reached in 2011. The agreement with Rogers has no effect on that agreement or any rights package in the United States.
