Six games are set for national broadcast this season. Frankly I think they're all going to be really good games for ratings.
The NBC game is January 18th against the Rangers at 12:30.
As for Versus:
Tuesday, | Oct. 14 | PHILADELPHIA | 7:30 p.m. |
Tuesday, | Nov. 11 | at Detroit | 7:00 p.m. |
Tuesday, | Nov. 18 | MINNESOTA | 7:00 p.m. |
Monday, | Dec. 22 | at Buffalo | 7:00 p.m. |
Monday, | Jan. 5 | at NY Rangers | 7:00 p.m. |
The Detroit game on November 11 should be a huge draw for obvious reasons. Two huge hockey cities, not to mention fans wanting to watch a Stanley Cup series rematch, will convene on VS for that one.
Will the Minnesota game draw a lot of people in? I know the Wild have a huge fan base.
I think the TV schedule looks pretty solid.
