In the United States NHL games are aired nationally by Versus (previously 
the "Outdoor Life Network" and "OLN"), and by NBC.NBC replaced the
previous 
over-the-air network, ABC, and has a revenue-sharing agreement with the
NHL. 
Versus replaced ESPN as the cable network; Comcast, which owns Versus, 
offered a two-year $120 million agreement, while ESPN offered a revenue 
sharing agreement.In addition, select games are broadcast in high
definition 
on the HDNet cable channel.
