In addition, Gray's wholly owned production company, Raycom Sports, produces all of the games for the Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL).

"This will put a premier NCHC game each week on several local TV stations in non-NCHC markets, as well as some of our own media markets, growing exposure for the Conference and the high-quality product that defines college hockey. Combining Gray's reach with our already existing CBS Sports Network agreement and NCHC.tv, fans will be provided more options than ever to enjoy NCHC hockey."
NCHC專員希瑟·威姆斯說：「我們很高興能與格雷媒體合作，擴展本會議的線性電視節目。」 「這將使每週在多個非NCHC市場的當地電視臺播放一場頂級的NCHC比賽，以及我們自己的一些媒體市場，提升本會議和定義大學曲棍球的高質量產品的曝光率。結合格雷的覆蓋範圍以及我們已存在的CBS體育網絡協議和NCHC.tv，粉絲將獲得更多選擇，盡情享受NCHC曲棍球。」
