Snap.Inc has renewed and extended its partnership with the NHL and Disney Streaming Services, a subsidiary of the American entertainment group The Walt Disney Company, which operates the NHL app and the OTT platform NHL.TV, as part of a multi-year partnership, on 20/02/2019.

"The league's Snapchat channel will now produce a weekly highlights show recapping the top 10 plays from the previous week. As part of the new deal, the NHL will become the first professional sports league to produce curated stories on Snapchat for select games and marquee NHL events. The new content will be available to Snapchat users globally. The expanded NHL-Snap partnership will continue to include Bitmoji outfits for all 31 of the league's teams," said the NHL.

"We want Snapchat to be the best place on mobile to keep up with the NHL. The NHL has been a tremendous partner that continues to innovate, and we're thrilled they'll be taking advantage of all our offerings to deliver Snapchatters the ultimate fan experience," said Juan Borrero, Snap's head of sports partnerships.
