NHL and Caesars Entertainment Forge Ahead with Enhanced Partnership

In a significant development for the sports betting and gaming landscape, Caesars Entertainment, Inc. and the National Hockey League (NHL) have proudly announced the renewal of their partnership within the United States.

This multiyear extension not only reaffirms Caesars’ role as a Sports Betting and Gaming Partner of the NHL but also marks a pioneering step with Caesars Digital gaining access to NHL-owned intellectual property. This access paves the way for the creation of NHL-branded iCasino games, enhancing the offerings on its online casino platforms across North America, including the recently introduced Caesars Palace Online Casino.

Expanding the Fan Experience

This renewed alliance extends beyond traditional boundaries, providing Caesars Rewards® members with exclusive VIP experiences and ensuring heightened visibility for Caesars Sportsbook and Caesars Rewards during national NHL broadcasts, particularly during the electrifying Stanley Cup Playoff games in select Caesars markets. Furthermore, the partnership guarantees the continued utilization of NHL team logos and imagery within the Caesars Sportsbook app, alongside opportunities for League Alumni and the iconic Stanley Cup® to make appearances, enriching the overall fan experience.

Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital, expressed his enthusiasm, noting the unique position of Las Vegas, home to the reigning Stanley Cup Champions, in the heart of NHL excitement and passion. He emphasized the partnership’s role in leveraging this fan passion to deliver unforgettable experiences across both sports betting and online casino platforms.

The NHL’s commitment to engaging its passionate fanbase has been a cornerstone of its partnership with Caesars. Jason Jazayeri, NHL Vice President, Business Development, highlighted the innovative efforts undertaken in collaboration with Caesars to deepen fan engagement and is optimistic about the future prospects of this evolving relationship.
