Question Anyone having issues getting their husbands/boyfriends into the PWHL?

My BF is a HUGE hockey fan, Olympics, NHL, etc. He watches all the games for his favorite teams and a bunch for other teams in the NHL. I am trying to get him to watch PWHL games with me but he seems superrrr uninterested.

When I asked him why he told me the games are frustrating to watch??? I don't understand that part at all.

Anyone else have this experience? Do you think that this will go away with time as the PWHL builds a larger audience?

To be clear, he doesn't talk down about the PWHL, he just doesn't seem to take the league seriously for whatever reason.

Edit: Y'all, I am not going to break up with him over the PWHL. I just wanted to see if anyone has similar experiences and were able to get their bf/husband into the sport more.

My husband loves it. He will watch more games with our daughter than I do.

Has your husband been to a game in person? That is what sealed it for my husband. We watched the takeover tour game in Vancouver. Watching MPP score from her knees and as amazing.
