The NHL returns to ESPN next week for coverage of the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft and the first round of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. League coverage will return to ESPN for the 2021-22 season after being limited to ESPN+ in recent years.

Hearing the old ESPN hockey theme music gives me the chills. It’s a reminder for me, and for any fans born in the 1990s, of early memories watching the Philadelphia Flyers.
