I played hockey my whole life, and therefore biologically I was unable to even dribble a basketball.
But the NBA is much more fun to watch than the NHL. The drafts of the late 90s have put so many young superstars in the NBA that it will only get better.
The NHL is weak and only get weaker. The All-star gimmick is weak as is shutting down the league for three weeks during the Olympics. Every year there's some new guy in the NHL who has an immense year, and then does nothing the next year. It's just too hard to be a casual fan of the NHL.
