The 2025–2026 NHL DED Report is here.

Download the full report here: https://hubs.ly/Q04hmbpl0

This season, Trajektory tracked:
• $890.5M in total DED value across 21 NHL teams
• 2,782 hours of branded exposure
• U.S. + Canadian broadcast feeds to capture the full sponsorship picture

Inside the report, we break down:
• The top-performing teams and brands in DED value
• How Full Takeovers, End Takeovers, Zones, and Split Zones actually performed
• Exposure ratios by ad format
• Why Canadian viewership is adding millions in overlooked sponsorship value
• Zone-by-zone insights to help teams optimize pricing and inventory strategy

The data also highlights a growing shift toward high-impact creative ex*****ons, with Full Takeovers continuing to rise as brands prioritize visibility and storytelling within the DED environment.

If you’re still measuring DEDs off a single feed or without Canadian viewership, you’re underreporting sponsorship value.

Today, Trajektory announced a new $8M funding round to continue advancing the industry’s most comprehensive sponsorship intelligence platform.

While many organizations still rely on multiple, disconnected tools and siloed reporting across broadcast, social, earned, and in-venue assets, Trajektory was built to provide a connected, cross-channel view of sponsorship performance under one consistent methodology.

Today, Trajektory:
• Tracks more than $180B in annual sponsorship value
• Works with nearly half of all major professional teams in North America
• Powers sponsorship intelligence for many of the industry’s leading brands and agencies

This new investment will accelerate:
→ AI and engineering innovation
→ Cross-channel sponsorship intelligence
→ Expanded platform capabilities
→ Greater data granularity and ex*****on at scale

Thank you to our customers, partners, employees, and investors for being part of what we’re building.
