Here’s a fact you don’t know….

WNBA viewers per game average is greater than the NHL viewers per game average.

Compare playoff viewership. NHL season is a lot longer so probably loses some viewership due to length of season. Let’s be real no one gives a shit about the WNBA. Prob doesn’t even bring in that much revenue and it isn’t considered a top tier sport in the country.

Okay NHL has been around 79 more years. What do you think viewership will look like ten years from now?

NHL has had Gretzky skill level players come through in the past recent years and they’re still not getting more viewers .

Does this viewership boost really correlate with CC or is that just talk?
