that's probably the largest suprise I've seen in a long time.[/quote:e9885]
Thats Canada remember, not the states.
"It was a different story in the U.S., where Tuesday's game tied for the lowest-rated Stanley Cup final game on ESPN since 1990. Game 1 was watched by an average of 1,013,000 people. That translates into a rating of 1.1, which is down from 1.4 for last year's first game. Of the 34 Stanley Cup final games the network has televised since 1990, only Game 2 of last year's series between New Jersey and Anaheim had a rating as low. "
3 million people in Canada watch the game - thats 10% of the entire country. Thats pretty high. As for the states it was 1 million which is what? 0.004% I believe.
Just imagine if 2 Canadian teams made it. Like Edmonton - Toronto or Vancouver - Montreal, EVERYONE would watch that sucker.
