But it seems that when analysts get to work talking about what needs to be done in order to "fix" hockey, it all boils down to selling it to Americans. That's why they added the shootout, that's why they've considered a million ways to possibly increase scoring, that's why they wouldn't allow the Predators to move from Nashville to Hamilton. And still it's impossible to find on TV if you live in America.
