Why Aren’t People Following Hockey

from Stan Fischler at the Daily Freeman,
WHY ISN’T big league hockey more accepted by the average fan than it is today?
Or, to put it another way, will it forever be known as a “niche sport” to sports editors and TV producers who decide which sports get the big play and which do not?
These questions have bedeviled National Hockey League honchos as the circuit expanded from six to 12 and on to the 30 teams now spread across the continent.
ONE WOULD think that any league with footprints in such diverse metropoli as Tampa Bay, Phoenix, Nashville, Boston, Vancouver, and Montreal - just to name a few - would develop admirable TV ratings.

I have a 13” non-HD TV and oblique astigmatism, and I can follow the puck just fine.
