One wonders why they didn't use this bug instead

 

If you're dealing with any media with a 50+ majority audience you don't want to anger them into Facebook ranting your page about 'why is there hockey on the Golf Channel?!' (aka every soap opera ever when news breaks in). Best to just neutralize it the best you can and hope the experiment goes well. Or they didn't bother to put a Golf bug in the graphics machine to be in that position.

It's not strictly NHL, but it's pretty much the NIT for North American hockey players until there's no Canadian teams left in the Stanley Cup Playoffs: the IIHF World Championships began today, and they got a well-needed graphics overhaul this year.

A lot simpler-looking but still with European flair. The old graphics looked very fancy and distinct, but also became dated very quickly.

Those are nice. I would have preferred the scorebar to be placed in the corner but that's my only nitpick.

The previous graphics had a similar scoreboard layout, but the overall style seemed to scream American Gladiators revival more than hockey with the late-2000's/early 2010's "gotta have skeumorphism cause we're HD now" look that's going out of style.

 

Yeah it reminded me of NHL Network's last look before MLBAM took over production of the network.
