It wouldn't even be the worst finals to feature the Kings and a team from a state with New in it.

The number of people gained by both LA and NY watching the finals will be voided by the rest of the country just not giving a gently caress. No one wants two cities that win a championship of some sort at least once or twice a decade to have any more. I honestly won't even watch the finals because I just loving hate both teams. If one of Chicago or Montreal were there it would be far more tolerable but holy poo poo.

With realignment, the NHL probably wishes Chicago made the finals every year since that's by far the top US Western Conference draw.

So that said it'll do better in ratings than 2012 but it won't come close to 2013.

Today is May 27th. 20 years ago today was the last time the Rangers won the conference. And Howie Rose explains that famous call:

So games 3 and 4 will be the NBCSN games of the finals.

Imagine the outrage if game 4 is a potential sweep (however little odds there are)

e: The potential horse racing triple crown next Saturday probably is why game 2 is on NBC

I heard it was 2 and 3 on NBCSN to prevent that exact thing from happening (and the odds aren't very low). :confused:

They changed it today:

Steve Lepore ‏@stevelepore 1h
The TV schedule for the Stanley Cup Final has changed. NBC will air Games 1, 2 and 5-7 of the series. NBCSN will air Games 3 and 4.

NBC will now have the Belmont Stakes and Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final on the same day. And NBCSN avoids a game on Saturday.


Like I said, that triple crown lead-in is too good to pass up.
