At least 75+ and that's probably being conservative. I typically watch about 6 hours of hockey per night because I watch the West Coast games, too . I'm sure it drives my gf crazy.
During football Sundays, I have 5-6 tvs in the living room, so it may not be my focus of attention, but I'll rewind it later unless it's a blowout.

hey hanrahan!
Yeah when I even did a quick mental count of hours after adding up the Rangers regular season, , national games, radio games, sports talk, etc., it's sort of alarming.

Unfortunately in today's connected age it's difficult to not find out the score somehow.
Ha. I have never been able to DVR live games. Just knowing that I'm behind, I can't do it. Like I don't want to be all amped up because we're up 2-0 and everyone else watching live is apoplectic because we're now down 3-2. I know it doesn't matter but I can't handle it.

Hmmm...trying to figure out when I had my first CBand satellite system installed...thinking 1990 or before and cost me 4-5 Grand . Since then I might have missed on average .5-1 game a season counting playoffs . Yeah...no life.... LOL....Installed Digital Directv after Cup win and subbed for a year and then did a lot of pirate cards and then a few years later switched to subbing on Bell Satellite TV when they added Center Ice . I would not change a thing ....win or lose...watch them all .

I'm pretty much the same way. I just can't watch a game hours after the fact knowing everything I'm watching already happened or that something serious like an injury happened and that it's been common knowledge for a while. Plus, just making sure I don't get spoiled before watching it is a hassle in itself. Between people texting me, messaging me, social media, etc it's basically impossible to avoid the score. If I have to miss a regular season game then so be it, I'll just follow along via the box score or Twitter then catch highlights later. Playoff games I just won't miss live.

Maybe 60 to 65 because in my old job I wouldn't get home until 8 or 8:30 for a lot of 7 pm starts. By the time I got home, changed, and ate, the game would be almost over and i would just say "f*** it".
Now that I have a "normal" 9 to 5 job, the answer would probably be 70 to 75. Probably will be some games during the weekend that I'll have plans and some of the west coast games I'll miss.

I'm the same way; I tried doing it, but something about it not being live killed some of the excitement for meHa. I have never been able to DVR live games.

I DVR and watch when I get home from work. The only time I miss is if I'm out on a Saturday night and they have a Saturday night game. I would watch them Sunday morning but they're usually spoiled.

Haha he only did it a few times.
Plenty of my friends spoil me accidentally .. it's kinda funny how many nyr fans live in Atlanta.
I've got 3 on my beer league team and including chuck maybe another 10 to 15 I'm friends with here.

A few years back the rangers got obliterated by the stars 10 zip. I was playing a beer league game and got home at like 130am.
I stayed up and watched the entire game knowing the final score.
I didn't have kids back then, but I'd do it similarly today but id probably watch it the next day instead.
I love watching games on DVR. I can watch an entire game in like 70 mins.
Most seasons I am somewhere above 75 games watched if I counted. There are very few games I miss on TV. This year may be a little different as I am real close to pulling the trigger on season tickets for the Hurricanes so that will force me to miss a bunch of games.
I always do this after men’s league games. I can’t sleep. If NYR played I gotta sit down and watch. Brutal the next day
Every single game. I literally schedule my life around the season. Can't have it any other way.
