Ted Talk Proposal

I am going to talk about the reason why hockey is not as appreciated as other sports throughout the United States of America. I am going to back this up with research on for example, how many viewers tuned in to watch the Super Bowl and how many viewers tuned in to watch the Stanley Cup. On top of this, just how many people in America watch regular season NHL hockey games compared to how many people in America watch an NBA or MLB regular season game. I am going to then back this up with real life experience, for example on Sports Center how they barely show NHL highlights, its always baseball, basketball or football highlights. How they hype up a big basketball, baseball or football game and barely hype up the American sports fans when there is going to be an important NHL hockey game on. My takeaway for the audience is going to be for them to realize how the NHL is less favorited as an American sport than a sport like baseball, basketball, football and even golf. Also and most importantly what the NHL has to do to put themselves in a different position, looking at the way their league is viewed by American sport fans
