I'm on pace for 82 this season, but usually miss up to 5 a year. The real question is how many of those games do I fall asleep during thanks to my Atlantic Time Zone life

5 regular season games live, probably around 70 streamed, but I'm either doing chores or surfing for 80% of it. I'll lock attention in the last 5-10 minutes if it's close.

how many people here actually sit down with their beer/wings/popcorn with eyes glued to screen the whole time?

I have watched all but 2 this year.
It's tough being on Eastern time, but ESPN+ comes for free with Disney+/Hulu, and it has all the games, so that's nice. Only games against Chicago are blacked out.

All of them, and when the NHL gets cute with blackouts, alternative means I don't feel bad about. I'd pay you to watch them if I could!

Probably 70+

I often have to pick kids up during the weekday games so I miss part and settle for radio during that time

Younger me would have watched 82 if they were all on tv...my mom still asks if the games on TV from time to time.

During my university days, all of them. Now, 15 years later, 60-65.

I'm usually able to catch most of the games halfway through after my girls go to bed. Still searching for a good streaming service (currently using Sportsnet Now) that you can restart the game without it glitching halfway through then booting you out, forcing you to watch live and effectively ruining the viewing experience.

every one that is televised for the Toronto/National markets and a couple more via alternative means - not sure what that totals but about half i guess.

I see pieces of about one in five on TV, and catch pieces of another one in five on the radio. The majority of the games I end up following the box score updates on the NHL website, which sucks, but is better than nothing.

Haven't missed a Flames game in probably 15 years and now with PVR it really is easier than ever before to watch all Flames games.

Pretty much all of them; I've missed the odd one or part of a game from time to time, but not too often. (Even when we're out camping as long as I have cell service I'll watch...sometimes to the chagrin of my wife LOL.)

50-60 maybe? I try to watch them all but life does get in the way of a handful, especially early and late in the hockey season when I'm working night shift and don't get out of bed until 7:30pm
