NHL will be fine. Most of their money comes from the gate and regional sports TV with a reasonable contract with NBC. MLB will be fine as they have good contracts with the regional TV companies. It's the NFL & NBA that are going to have trouble. College football maybe as well, though you see the BIG and SEC spreading their packages across multiple networks. Those two conferences will be fine as they are diversifying their platforms.

The one good thing for CFB, is that NBC Sports needs programming for their channels. And they have been blocked out of negotiating contracts, because ESPN had all rights. Last deals do not have that option.

NBC already has NFL, they are happy with the Sunday night games, especially since they get to pick the game.
