    NBC/NHL may now change scheduled game 2

    Acording to WGRZ website...........

    NBC announced Sunday that game 2 of the series would be played Saturday in Buffalo, but have since changed their schedule. The NBC website no longer lists any teams for the nationally televised game.
    I honestly wonder if NBC is worried about ratings in the Buffalo and NY markets due to the draft?!

        Maybe it's just me, but I honestly can't understand why the draft is such a big deal. First of all, it's boring as hell to watch and it takes damn near forever to complete. Secondly, most people are only interested in what their team does, so you're only watching a few minutes each round. Lastly, how could there even be competition between a STANLEY CUP FINAL HOCKEY GAME where YOUR TEAM IS PLAYING and a stupid, boring draft????? It honestly makes absolutely no sense to me.


        There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
        Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
        The only answer I found for all this hurt
        Is there ain't not answer here on earth

            Great post, I love you. The draft is mostly for those old timers who sit on their fat asses with a beer and a bag of chips while they decide to either break the tv or squirt one off depending on his teams selection.

              The NHL is really making it harder to sell tickets when we don't even know when the dates are on freaking Monday. It makes no sense to wait until the other conference is done with the first round. The East is completely done, the damn schedule should be announced today.

                  the NHL hasn't announced it yet. They might not announce it until after the final game tonight.
