NHL, OLN Agreement Includes Online and VOD Components

The much-written about agreement last week between NHL and Outdoor Life Network (owned by Comcast) to air gams on OLN has some major online and VOD components as well: VOD game highlights and library footage of the games; HDTV game coverage; and online streaming of two live games per night (subject to local blackout), broadband highlights, commentary, and library footage.

OLN will pay the NHL $65 million this season and $70 million in 2006-07.
