## Resource

Hockey Night in Canada has officially ended after CBC couldn’t renew its NHL broadcast deal with Rogers Sportsnet, marking the close of a decades-long Canadian institution that shaped sports culture since its radio debut in 1936 and TV launch in 1952. More than just games, it was a national ritual — inspiring generations, inventing instant replay, and uniting millions around TVs with its iconic theme. Now, with Rogers locking in a $11.2 billion deal and streaming replacing free broadcasts, fans mourn the loss of communal hockey nights, calling it the end of an era and a fading piece of Canadian heritage.
