>Because in most professional sports

I'm pretty sure most professional sports use medals. Championship rings are not really a thing (other than maybe some sports that are almost exclusively played in the us)

Is there championship rings in any hockey league outside of America?

The nhl, is not an american league. Unless youre meaning north America.

It also brings players from around the world.

An American league would be like the nfl, where only American teams play in it. The nhl, has American and Canadian teams, its a north American league.

Really, its a Canadian - American league, since mexico isnt in it.

Yes, Canada is in America as well, so a league containing US and Canadian teams is an American league. Besides, a US league could have Canadian teams as well. Unless you're trying to imply the Segunda Division is not a Spanish league either, because of FC Andorra?

Its in North America. No one ever refers to American while also implying Canada and Mexico. When you say "America", ppl think of the USA.

That's simply not true, which was proven by me just a moment ago using "American" in precisely this way.

And in any case, the NHL is hardly even a professional sports league, since there's no relegation and promotion.

Youre not, at all. You realized how stupid your argument is, then went " its not even a real league " okk then.
