NHL hockey is WAAAAY better than the NBA. People are fond of saying that hockey is great to watch in person but does not televise well. That’s BS. With modern camera technique, HD quality and large screen television, that canard is no longer valid.

I have to agree. Last year I saw an NHL hockey game at a Buffalo Wild Wings. I was amazed at how much sharper the picture was and how the camera angles have improved (they even have cameras inside the hockey nets now). You could actually see where the puck was at all times. The quality of the replays is incredible.

During the 1970s and 1980s, when I was watching hockey more, the images were usually fuzzy and the cameras had a hard time following the puck - a lot of herky-jerky camera movements that made you dizzy after a while.
