Anyways, the 20 of us in Calgary who actually care will be at the Rose and Crown Tuesday night...
In this case, it's more than just lack of interest too. Tonight, TSN and Sportsnet have five Canadian NHL teams playing, the NLCS and while it's going to be replays, two Euro Championship qualifiers. Every single one of those events will pull 10-1000x the viewership that the CANMNT will.
