One of these things is not like the other

SportAverage Team Value        (millions)
NFL$2,388
MLB$1,537
Soccer (top 20 teams)$1,468
NBA$1,355
NHL$517

Forbes, April 11

A testimony to too many National Hockey League franchises in questionable, experimental markets. Yes, the National Hockey League is growing, but it cannot match those other four sports in popularity and financial value, which are also growing, but typically with less questionable, experimental markets. Hockey is a less popular sport and this is made worse through certain National Hockey League franchise locations.

Note

The soccer entry from Forbes would be UEFA football clubs.
