ESPN NHL writer Greg Wyshynski signs multiyear extension

ESPN senior NHL writer Greg Wyshynski has signed a new multiyear contract with the network, according to an announcement on social media on Wednesday. In his post, Wyshynski expressed his pride in contributing to NHL coverage across multiple platforms and praised his hockey and wrestling teammates for their insight, creativity, and passion.

He hinted at more personal news coming soon. Wyshynski joined ESPN in 2017 after working at Yahoo Sports and Deadspin, where he authored a popular blog and weekly NHL column. At ESPN, he covers the NHL across several platforms, including writing news stories, appearing on television shows like SportsCenter, and contributing to podcast efforts.

ESPN is currently in the final years of its media rights deal with the NHL, airing the Stanley Cup Final in 2028, while TNT Sports handles the Cup Final this season. It remains to be seen if Wyshynski's new deal will extend beyond ESPN's NHL media rights deal, as his previous multiyear contract was announced in 2023.
