Hockey is on par with a college basketball game. No real reason to watch it unless its your team. Regional games did and would get better ratings if they went that route. The NBA usually goes with the Lakers or Celtics every weekend who have huge national followings unlike hockey teams. A Memphis/New Jersey NBA game wouldn’t do much better than the NHL I figure
