it would be more exciting if they played just one period or three 10 minute periods.
i was actually into it late in the game; then especially in sudden death overtime.
Basketball? you got eye popping dunks & clutch winning shots.
Baseball? you got game winning hits/homeruns & masterful pitching performances.
Football? IT'S FUCKING FOOTBALL! FUCK YEAH! 8)
from people i talk to, they watch Hockey in hopes of a fight more than the art of playing the game lol; you already know something is wrong.

hockey and baseball are somewhat similar in terms of excitement.
like you said with baseball, it has the winning hits and home runs, plus the pitching.
with hockey, you can have high scoring games (especially since the last lockout), or you can defensive masteries. plus the shootouts add another element of excitement.
and just like the MLB playoffs, the Stanley Cup playoffs are also exciting. especially when they go in the double and triple OTs.
there are also the rivalries that occur. in baseball, the biggest one is the Yankees vs. the Red Sox.
hockey has the Leafs vs. the Canadiens. it also gets good when any of the original six play each other. plus, you have the regional rivalries as well.
so I wouldn't say its extremely boring if you start checking out more.

And jd,Like i said its not everyone,theirs variety in every people.But this isnt something I came up with suddenyl,this is the repuation of your country to the rest of the world that you buit for yourselves.Its based on everything not just one action or person.You prove it over and over again.So write LMAO!!! as often as you like.Your just backing up of the perception of the countries people.

Jaydc:
go research the teams,Im not going to go into evry single teams broadcast schedule the proof is there for you.The last year has changed a lot and some teams are getting more games.But the nhls networks for us games is versus,a channel many dont even have access to.
As far as local games,for example the blackhawks local games now being teleivison are only available on satetillite and not through network cable.The games started being broadcast in 2007,I was mistaken with my year forgive me.
Jaydc:
And yes teams do have a few local broadcasters,but nationally,and Im not talking primetime,im just saying nationally available games teams have less then 10 games available,often times less then five.

like i said before, thats bad business, and has nothing to do with the interest level of the nhl here in america.
im sure millions would be happy as fuck if there was another way to watch the nhl in america.
