The western conference final with the Avalanche and Stars would have decent viewership. The eastern conference ratings would be very low if it is the Hurricanes and BJs.

In the last ten years, the NHL has seen Pittsburgh win 3x, Chicago 3x, LA 2x, and with Washington and Boston in there for good measure.

A small market is due.

Game one of that series ended in regulation.

How big do you think Pittsburgh is? There are only 5 US-based teams that play in a market smaller than Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh will always be a big television market as long as they have Crosby and Malkin.

Stop derailing the Hurricanes thread!
No one is whining, that's YOUR perception. This is a forum full of opinions. You don't agree with mine I could give a crap! I don't agree with you, but you don't see me bitching because I don't share your opinion.

I have been a fan of this team since they arrived in Calgary, so if I want to say that the team played poorly compared to the Hurricanes I'm going to damn well do it.

Which is all fine and dandy, share your opinions.

But you’re missing the point where all of this is about the Flames and none of it is about the Hurricanes. You don’t seem to understand that one single Hurricanes thread among dozens and dozens of Flame threads, you decided to post Flames only thoughts in the Hurricanes thread

You’re like that selfish idiot in the office who taints the separate recycling bin thinking “man, looking at all this recycling reminds me of wasteful I am in my life” and you proceed to dump your regular garbage in that bin.

It doesn’t make any sense and neither does your logic

Pittsburgh is a big hockey market for viewership. They have the most hockey fans per capita in the US. It's why they get a lot of outdoor games.

Whatever you say boss

If you look at any game thread on any of the series going on now, you will see a lot of people saying the same things I was saying, but you're calling me out? Go #### yourself buddy, and stop acting like a goof.

And one more thing. This is a Calgary Flames forum, so if you're that interested in receiving "untainted", Carolina Hurricanes information, why don't you go and join their forum?
