Good thing the NHL is putting this barn burner of a series up against Game 7 Heat/Celtics. Fucking morons can never get it right. Mid-Afternoon when the buzz is hot and primetime against the NBA when nobody gives a flying fuck anymore. I might not watch 5 minutes of the game and I have $$$ on it. The NBA ratings will kill the NHL in LA for fuck sakes. Well done you baffling buffoons!!!

P.S Nothing going on tonight???

hate to say it BUT I think clepto makes a good point. maybe NBC will switch the game to NBC Sports to REALLY stick a fork in this series TV ratings  

not that his Canucks and the Devils would have been ANY better in the States

Not sure it matters either way. The bottom line is this : People are going to favor a game that they're familiar with. 90% of American kids between the ages of 5-15 have at one time played a game of basketball, football, or baseball. You can probably turn the numbers around and say that 90% of the same have never laced up a pair of skates and participated in a competetive hockey match on ice. 99% of this country's population have never seen a frozen pond or an ice rink in their hometown, but everyone has seen a baseball diamond, football field or basketball court.  People will always gravitate to what they're familiar and comfortable with.
Hockey will always be a niche sport available to the relative few who have been able to play it.

Nah, people like winners.  There's been professional hockey in Pennsylavania since the late 1890's.  But hockey never flourished in the U.S because you guys were never good at it.  All the players were from either Ontario or Quebec.  In the first 90 years, American teams won a mere handful of cups.  So why play it or watch it when you cant win it?  Traditions were made with baseball and basketball because winning was achievable.  Not to worry though, as gary and Cdn team owners are changing the losing culture.  They have brought you plenty of winners the past 3 decades in efforts to boost both morality and viewership. Good luck

he resides in florida danger,when i was 9 my father had to drive me over 30 minutes to get to a rink that had a league, all though that rink is no longer there. if you drove the same route you will pass 3 on the way,big changes from 1974! and when young played many days and hours on a frozenpond next to the long island expressway! i think the market in the us revolves closer to the canadian border,with the excption of calli.

I think you are one of the biggest buffoons on here but you are spot on for this one!

As a matter of fact, I dont even know why both commissioners dont get together and figure it out. No reason why the NHL game could not start at 5pm Eastern time on a Saturday and the NBA at 8:30pm or Vice Versa.

As a sports fan ( and i dont really like the NBA ) I would love to have a Saturday that has a SC final and a game 7 NBA game featuring Lebron and Pierce back to back.

Also, Bettman is one clueless f$%^&*. I cant wait to hear the fans boo him when his bobblehead neck presents the SC trophy
