What sport would you rather watch? NCAA women's gymnastics or NHL Playoff hockey? I am going to go with gymnastics
I finally watched a few minutes of playoff hockey last night, and the best I can say is ....meh.The poor NHL can't catch a break south of the border, and it's not all their fault.
I mean 3 of the 4 series are 3-0, wow that has me on the edge of my seat.
Ok well wait, maybe there are some huge media markets and hockey hotbeds that they can still draw in like San Jose, Buffalo, New Jersey, Carolina, Edmonton, Ottawa,Anaheim, or Colorado? Ok scratch that idea to.
Well at least they have a television deal with NBC that can draw huge ratings right? (It's not like Fox, ABC, and ESPN have already given up on them)
Ummmm...think again. I think it's fitting that the NHL has found it's fourth different home in less than ten years and the initials are NBC. (N0-Body Cares)
Just get these playoffs over and done with so we can get to more coverage of other sports that are better like baseball, tennis, and pre-empted college gymnastics.

Your just mad because you could never skate very well.
Such blasphemy!! If you want to watch the absolute best sports has to offer then watch Edmonton fight tooth and nail for every win in the post season. My roomate is from Edmonton and watching them eek into the playoffs on victories won with heart and work ethic has been the best sports entertainment I've witnessed in years.
I'll give you the Edmonton series Nate. I have actually watched some of it. But I mean the other three series were horrible and very anti-climatic. If it were not for the saving grace of Edmonton and San Jose series, this would have been a monumental disaster for the NHL.
Bring back Al Iafrate!
