NHL Demonetizing YouTube Channels

[Mortimer Snerd]

I always thought the NHL were lenient with YT and IG channels because it was free advertising.

They must be losing money that way (idk how though), otherwise why would they be against these channels? Highly doubt it's just ego.

They look at the money all of these channels are getting as lost revenue.

Lol. When you're searching the couch for change it's already game over.

Man the NHL just can't avoid actively shooting itself in the foot when it comes to marketing this league.

YT channels are good for the sport. It's free advertising, and gets more people to turn into games. Even if this was an accident, the setting to enable it shouldn't have even been remotely accessible

Ive heard many say that this is ayoutube problem, it somehow takes time before the higher resolutions start showing, that what many comments have said, i dont have a legit source.

No I mean on the gamecenter of scores on NHL.com, and I think the other poster too. The rate is ok on YT and videos are at least 1080p. The problem on YT are the incessant ads.

I'd have more sympathy for those so called "content creators" if they didn't whine on such a high level.
"I put so much work into it, it's my only source of income".

The ones who are getting hit the hardest are literally those whose content relies on videos they simply don't own.

The Hockey Guy will be 100% fine.
Those other ones who just use the NHL's footage will have to figure out something else.

I was on the outrage boat until this Next Man Up guy posted his whiny video.
f*** those guys.
Go find a different nice or a different job.
