NBCSN had gone through many name changes since its founding in 1995. When Comcast acquired NBC in 2011, it was rebranded to NBCSN from Versus. Before that, it had been known as OLN (Outdoor Life Network) before becoming Versus in 2006.
In 2011, NBC Sports reached a ten-year extension to their National Hockey League TV contract, but that ended last season with games moving to ESPN and TNT. Their current deal with the Premier League was set to end with the 2021-22 campaign, but NBC just re-upped for six more seasons.
