Watching Penguins/Flyers

from Puck The Media,

So this is an interesting one.  According to SportsBusinessDaily (reg. required), NBC’s coverage of the Stanley Cup Playoffs had a mixed weekend.  While the network’s Saturday coverage of Rangers/Capitals Game 2 drew a mere 1.0/3, flat with last year’s comparable Predators-Red Wings game, Sunday’s telecast of the Penguins-Flyers Game 3, drew a huge (for hockey) 1.7/4, NBC’s highest hockey ratings since the Winter Classic on New Year’s Day, and likely tied for the highest non-Finals/Winter Classic rating on NBC in the network’s history.

continue with some local numbers…

And they were afraid 2000 people watching the game at the Igloo would hurt their ratings.

1/3 of households in Pittsburgh watched the game. Give us the big screen and that MIGHT have dropped to something like 3332/9999 households.
