2014 Stanley Cup Final

Heroic Shrimp said:
I think it's hilarious that the Stanley Cup finals are done, but the Calder Cup finals will wrap up no sooner than Tuesday, and could go as late as the following Monday.

wait! There's still hockey?! where? on tv??  I miss it already!
 
The Canadiens could win the Cup and I'd enjoy watching them celebrate.  There's something special about watching the players after just winning, regardless of how much dislike and hatred there may be for that particular team.
 
This was a pre-Game 5 figure but this year's finals were the second highest rated since 2002:

Which, I guess, is an encouraging sign but it's worth noting that there's a significant dip from last year. A lot of people were saying that New York-LA is the league's dream match-up but I think that figure proves that the size of the market in general isn't more important than the appetite in that market for hockey. Chicago-New York would have probably resulted in higher numbers.
