What the NHL is Doing Wrong
by: Mike Marino | Sports to Boston Sports Day | Sunday, June 8 2008
NEW YORK - While watching Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals this year, you would have never realized that just recently, the NHL went through a devastating strike that appalled the league, its viewers, and its players. While looking at the league’s financial statements, its expenses have decreased, revenues increased, and we’re seeing numbers the league would have never dreamed of just a year or two ago. Attendance is up, merchandise and sponsorship are up, and total revenue and value have increased as well. The league has two of its premier teams in the Stanley Cup, nationally televised during primetime, bringing in solid ratings. With everything I’ve said thus far, you must be wondering how the title correlates to this article at all. Forget everything I just said. Forget that the NHL is having one of its best seasons in recent memory, and that the numbers couldn’t possible be any better. Forget it.

The New Jersey Devils were able to stop their two-game slide in Boston on Thursday with a 3-1 victory over the boys from Beantown. An estimated 1,500 people were in attendance for the game as the vast majority of fans were kept away by a huge snowstorm. Those in attendance didn’t have a whole lot to cheer about. Despite a fairly fast-pace to the first period, there were very few chances by either team. Though, the fans would be treated to a fight late in the first period between Milan Lucic and David Clarkson.
