Major League Gaming claims it will be bigger than the NHL in two years

REDWOOD CITY, Calif — The largest North American e-sports league, Major League Gaming (MLG), is quickly becoming a global leader in sports broadcasting. MLG’s growth is so large that it’s on pace to surpass one of the U.S.’s most popular sports, the National Hockey League (NHL).

“We’ll be bigger than the NHL in terms of viewership and revenue in about two years,” said Mike Sepso, the co-founder and president of Major League Gaming.
