In the US this will have about 1/5 the viewers of the Super Bowl (which broke the record and hit almost 107 million viewers this year). The game yesterday was close to 25 million viewers... you say it's unreal but that's pretty good. In the States the Super Bowl is much more than a football game, probably half of the people watch it just because it's a party, an excuse to eat, and the commercials. Obviously not the case for this game since NBC had no commercials during the periods. Hockey fans should be pretty happy with the number of Americans that watched this.
