I think a Pens/Wings Final would do even better than last year ratings wise. Hopefully, the Bruins can throw a wrench into that scenario but its not looking too good right now…...

Did someone run these numbers by Terry Foster at the Detroit News? I’m sure they are wrong.
He tells us no one cares about the Red Wings in Detroit.

This is just the metro-Detroit area too. I wonder what the numbers look like state wide.

That might even draw in fans of other teams or casual fans, because of the rematch. That doesn’t happen often in any sport.
