Instead Gm. 7 is scheduled for Friday, which is always bad for TV ratings anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-67084824265257244862009-06-09T13:53:42.907-04:002009-06-09T13:53:42.907-04:00What happens if there is a Game 7 on Friday, when ...What happens if there is a Game 7 on Friday, when incidentally, bunny ears become irrelevant? I plan to watch the first hour of Game 6 but at 7:00 MDT, it's time for the NBA. Gary Bettman needs a short walk off a long pier. How does he justify jamming fans in Quebec City while he condones putting hockey in the greater Phoenix area?Brad Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456357334026142358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-3213254394858894592009-06-09T13:30:16.026-04:002009-06-09T13:30:16.026-04:00No one hates their fans more than the NHL.No one hates their fans more than the NHL.GMoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03629846751680840539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-19824953364902546892009-06-09T13:27:09.958-04:002009-06-09T13:27:09.958-04:00Ladies and Gentlemen, your National Hockey League!...Ladies and Gentlemen, your National Hockey League!JFreakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13998960961891630442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-21897668516503540932009-06-09T13:09:00.578-04:002009-06-09T13:09:00.578-04:00amamamama - the only thing I could possibly think ...amamamama - the only thing I could possibly think of is if they were charging people to watch it, but I'm positive that's not the case with the outdoor TV in Pittsburgh.<br /><br />Sadly though, if even one of those of people are Nielsen homes...NBC would probably get credit for more than 1,000 viewers.Sean OLearyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17167403223532467766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-72632000788033631662009-06-09T12:56:52.906-04:002009-06-09T12:56:52.906-04:00If what NBC is saying were really true, wouldn'...If what NBC is saying were really true, wouldn't it be more effective to ban all bars and restaurants from showing the broadcast? That would force all hockey fans to watch the game at home.

Why couldn't they have scheduled the potential final game of the Stanley Cup Finals last night, which would not have gone against the NBA Finals like will tonight. It's also funny that "Sports Soup" aired on Versus between the conclusion of the game and the Post game show. Would that have flied in any other sport?
