“The NHL has formed an integral part of the IMG portfolio since we launched streaming in 2013, delivering high levels of engagement and value,” said Freddie Longe, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of IMG Gaming. “We are delighted to further our relationship and help extend the NHL’s reach and brand.”
With an excess of 100 technology integrations to the world’s leading sportsbook brands, the partnership will continue to deliver significant international exposure and on-going awareness of the NHL in both core and non-core markets.
“IMG is a proven leader in the distribution of real-time video streaming with a keen understanding of sports fans,” said David Proper, NHL Executive Vice President of Media and International Strategy. “Our partnership with IMG has brought long-term value and delivered significant benefit in extending the NHL’s reach in Europe.”
