I can honestly say that the Ottawa - Nj series was the worst , and most boring, 7 game series ....EVER.

while i think it was a good 7 games, the finals should be good as well.  anaheim is a legit good team and so is new jersey of course.  low scoring wont bother me, low shots will.

Well let me tell ya, the Anaheim and NJ series will be low scoring and low shooting. "The trap" has ruined the excitement of this years playoffs. Hockey is in trouble. It is not very appealing to the general public right now. Even though Ottawa was in first place through out the season, they couldn't get their attendance up. There are very few strong markets in hockey compared to other sports. You only have Detroit, Colorado, Toranto, and a few others.

This is not a good thing for hockey right now. No one will be watching this series, except for Anaheim, NJ, and hardcore hockey fans.

I wish it was 1985 again, and we had end to end action.  This hockey sucks.

By the way, Philly supports the Flyers, perhaps liking to torture ourselves, but nevertheless, we do support them.

I thought that I would bring this topic back, considering that Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals is tonight. I hope the ducks win, and I have them taking the cup in double overtime.

Doesn't matter, we all know who deserved to win.

Atleast Giguere got some recognition by winning the Conn Smyth.

Explain to me how the team that won, did not infact deserve to win? And on that same note how does a team that was swept in the first round deserve it?

Disregard that comment that dmbfan made. He doesn't know anything about hockey.

Anyways, I was being sarcastic and letting off some steam.

But I do feel that the Devils did not win with talent, but with some stupid system in which they wait for the other team to make a mistake and then they jump on it. Boring Hockey!

This is why hockey does not get the T.V ratings that it deserves. No one wants to watch a game where the puck is dumped in, taken back out, stopped in the nuetral zone, and dumped back in.

Hate to rain on your "the devils are ruining hockey" parade, but this years finals got the highest ratings since 1998. 4.6 with a 10 share, I believe.

And who was in the Cup Finals in 1998? Thats right, the Red Wings.

Ok, I don't want to start a fight. Just one more thing, the ratings may have been so high because of the cinderella team (more so than Carolina last year), and the game 7. I know that there was a game 7 in 2001, but the population has increased since then.

http://www.nhl.com/onthefly/news/145100.html =more detailed ratings info. As to the population increase since the last game 7, while i realize that the 2-3 year old demographic is quite important to industries such as Fischer-Price etc, I don't feel that the NHL needs at this time to actively seek out said demographic, and that any cross-branding promotion would be a marketing disaster.
