NHL playoffs only get good ratings if the Rangers, Red Wings, Blackhawks or Bruins are doing well. Note how Washington and Boston had the best ratings. Hockey in the South still doesn't work. Two Canadian teams beat the two Southern teams in the ratings.

Hockey has little traction in the South, it's true. Even casual NFL fans will watch games not involving their favorite teams, as most folks love to hate the Cowboys or Patriots or Tom Brady. They'll watch to root against them. Most folks I know can maybe only name 1 NHL player, ever. Maybe. And those teams competing out of Bumfrick, Canada will never draw big numbers in the States.
It's sad, as the Rangers' 1994 Stanley Cup run is some of the most fun and compelling sports I've ever watched.

Nashville, Tampa and Carolina would all beg to differ.
