It's pretty remarkable ratings had any growth considering Chicago, NYR, Philly, Detroit, LA, and Minnesota not being in contention.

Here's my prediction on how the "draft" up in Canada will go:

CBC- BOS/TOR
CBC- CGY/COL
TSN- WPG/STL
CBC- NYI/PIT
TSN-

The last 4 series don't really matter. The networks will just take whatever fills out doubleheaders easier.

Too many canadiens teams, but Boston - Toronto and Vegas - San Jose could be ratings succes for NBC.

Islanders/Pittsburgh should do well Columbus/Tampa is promising as is Caps/Hurricanes

NBCSN numbers will be down in the first round as most fans will watch their local broadcasters.

So ratings were up on both broadcast and cable?

Do we know by what percentage vs. last season?

NBCSN

2018-19
vs 2017-18
304k --- 302k

NBC

2018-2019 vs 2017-18
1.266M --- 1.29

NBC/NBCSN

2018-19 vs 2017-2018
413k ---- 417k


There are some wild cards here. One streaming average TAD Total Delivery could boost the overall average.
Two there are by my count 5 games that rated too low to have a TV aren't apart of the 304k and 413k Cable average. A month ago when NBC PR put out their numbers they were a little higher than the numbers we've accurately tracked on here. So since we didn't include those 5 games which would in effect lower the overall average either NBC didn't include those 5 games or the streaming numbers are really strong. The 5 games are below, regardless it will be interesting to see the numbers. This year will be the crucial year as this will be the last chance to improve fortunes for a big TV deal.

NBC SPORTS’ 2018-19 NHL REGULAR-SEASON COVERAGE DELIVERS VIEWERSHIP INCREASES ACROSS ALL PLATFORMS

STAMFORD, Conn. – April 8, 2019 – NBC Sports’ coverage of the 2018-19 NHL regular season – which included a record 112 games as well as a record number of doubleheaders and games featuring Canadian and Western Conference teams – delivered viewership increases across all platforms, according to Nielsen. Combined viewership across NBC, NBCSN, NBCSports.com and the NBC Sports app averaged a Total Audience Delivery (TAD) of 424,000 viewers, up 2% vs. the 2017-18 regular-season (105 games, 417,000).

Providence is scoring higher as many in the Boston suburbs west and south of the city are electing to watch Channel 10 out of Providence instead of NBC's owned outlet in Boston that also calls itself Channel 10 but actually transmits on Channels 15.1, 8.1 and 60.2

2% ain't much but we'll take it. It's a big relief and can't be overstated how big it was to reverse the downward trend NHL ratings had been in for the last couple years. I'm anxious to see how that relates in the TV negotiations in the off season.

TSN would love to be invited to the party but they have been banned from the playoffs since 2014.

NHL had solid regular season (it is great with so many Canadiens teams) but the TV revenue is in play-offs.

NBCSN

2018-19 vs 2017-18

313k vs 302k (UP 4%)

NBC

2018-2019 vs 2017-18

1.31M vs 1.29M (UP 2%)

NBC/NBCSN

2018-19 vs 2017-2018

424k vs 417k (UP 2%)

Playoff numbers will be crucial then hoping for HUGE Playoff numbers and a 2 peat for Ovi and the boys. We still are the kings, gotta take it from us.
