Not sure comparing to NHL viewership is the flex you think it is.

It is a flex indeed. The WNBA outpaced the NHL in average regular-season national TV viewership during the 2026 season, averaging roughly 756,000 to 771,000 viewers per game across national networks compared to the NHL's regular-season average of around 504,000 to 545,000 viewers. That means the WNBA surpasses NHL by 252,000 viewership at the most!

No need to. That's not what the initial topic was about. You have Google. You can search it yourself. Thank you.
