How many Ranger games do you watch on TV a year?

[KirkAlbuquerque]

since i moved back to the US, I've watched about 80% of them. maybe not the whole game but at least parts of it

67-82, but much closer to 67. If there was a choice of 60-70, that would probably be right for me.

I obviously watch all the playoff games, unless there's some sort of extenuating circumstance.

Latter part is a good point. I have two children including a four-year-old. Because of that I'm often going through her bedtime routine around puck drop and I will frequently miss the first period. Life.

The Arizona timezone makes it rough for me, but I do my best and certainly follow along with all of them.

That's the best time zone to watch the Rangers. Don't have to stay up through all hours of the night (10:30 PM) to finish a game.

yeah. I don't have any kids but sometimes you need to go out in the evening for whatever reason. So watch the game while getting ready, and then either listen on the radio while driving or follow along on my phone when i'm out. I consider that "watching the game" lol

I've been a diehard fan since '79
But I dont watch every game
I got other interests plus dont stay up late
I'd say I watch almost every game in Oct
About 70% in Nov, Dec
But once ski season comes I watch around 35%
I'll watch every playoff game tho

Presuming i can count attended games, nearly all of them.

Live only, but it’s lights out at 11pm (12am if a playoff game), so I miss a few due to the annual west coast road trips. One thing you have to love about NYC: the party doesn’t start till after the game has ended anyway; you don’t need to choose between watching some puck action and getting some action.

Agreed.

I grew up in Newfoundland, where all games were an hour and a half later than EST. Since moving to Alberta and being two hours earlier than EST, I've easily doubled the amount of games I see live in a season.

 

[Fugazy]

69, of course.

 

[Bob Richards]

Probably average around 60 games each season.

I've missed one playoff game since 2005. I'm still rattled about it.

 

[patnyrnyg]

All of the games I do not attend, so about 65-70.

 

[Deleted member 23124]

Definitely more than 50....once I gave up my ticket plan, I have actually watched less...

 

[NCRanger]

Somewhere in the 70s. I generally don't watch the west coast games unless there's no reason to get up early the next day.

There are a few Friday night early season games I miss due to high school football commitments, and a few in December/January/February due to basketball commitments.

There are always one or two that interfere with traveling or family commitments. I'll miss the 11/2 game in Nashville, as I'll be in NYC that day/night for a concert.

82..ish I never miss a game barring tv going out or power or something

 

[Leonardo87]

Probably around 65-70.

 

[mrhockey193195]

Around 70-75 each season. Since I haven't been on the east coast in a decade, I record all games and watch after the fact, skipping through commercials & intermissions. I don't check my phone and avoid all spoilers. Sometimes I'll even watch the game the morning after, especially if the risk of a spoiler is low (e.g., I'm out with my wife or with friends that night and phones stay in pockets).

Despite all that, I still miss ~10 games a year due to other commitments, etc.

It can be rough with the games starting (and sometimes finishing) while you’re at work haha

Agree with both posts.

I used to watch somewhere around 75 per season but I just can't do it anymore. I have an hour commute to and from work, I have a 16 month old son and, since I no longer have cable its harder to just put a game on in the background while I am doing stuff at home. If I can get 65-70 games this year I will be happy.

I never, ever miss a playoff game though.

I watch every game of every team of every league of every sport, world-wide.

Who am I for $500.

I haven’t missed a single game since the ‘07-‘08 season.
