This is from yesterday. Stu Hackel at
Slap Shot reports that MSNBC’s audience for Sunday’s United States-Canada preliminary-round game Olympic men’s hockey game, 8.22 million viewers, was the second highest in the history of that network, only slightly behind its ratings on election night in 2008, when 8.23 million watched.
...nice to see a big number for hockey. Wonder what the ratings would have been on NBC.
...i'm hopeful that a nice run by the Americans will lead to increased interest in the sport. Not sure it could ever get back to the popularity of 1994, but you never know.
