First Take doesn't care about hockey

Imagine buying the rights to broadcast a sport your biggest personalities are actively dismissive and apathetic to. Cool

This is embarrassing

Stephen A saying “I love Gary Bettman” is all I need to know about his hockey knowledge

This is a great look for the network that **checks notes** carries all the NHL games on their streaming network.

Stephen Smith loving Gary Bettman is all I need to know about Stephen Smith’s knowledge of hockey.

Maybe if Aaron Rodgers played in the NHL

@stephenasmith really? Rangers don't count? Hockey doesn't count? Just because it's out of your scope of knowledge doesn't lessen the game or that team in that market. Educate yourself Don't write off an entire organization or fan base because you don't know anything about it...

They own TV rights but love to hate on the league. Makes absolutely zero logical sense.

And if the Rangers don’t count to them, then you REALLY know the @WNBA NY Liberty don’t. 😤

ESPN is a complete joke
