Because most leagues are out of market and are held in Russia, Europe, and other foreign countries, many other leagues other than the NHL don't receive much attention.
Highlight reel plays, scary injuries, or brawls/fights are some of the only reasons you hear about other leagues. The most recent one took place in a match between clubs AIK and Djurgarden, and it was a scrum just five minutes into the game.�The two teams were competing in a relegation game to see whether one would stay regulated in HockeyAllsvenskan or return to the SHL.
