It's not hard to make up a namespace -- from the looks of that element
it seems that you've almost done so with the "key" attribute.

Try:

<nhl:league>NHL</nhl:league>

with xmlns:nhl="http://nhl.com/nhl-rss-ns#" tagged onto the <rss>
element at the top of the feed.

XML namespaces are just what you want for unordered metadata ;)
