Four Score: Strong start for new "Four Nations Face-Off"

The NHL may have something with its new "Four Nations Face-Off," which opened with a strong audience on TNT Wednesday.

Strong ratings for start of 4 Nations Face Off. TNT was number one for the night for the male demo for ages 18-34, 18-49 and and 25-54. That includes network TV programs not just cable.

Better ratings than the winter classic and USA wasn't even playing. That bodes well.

I'm not sure the PI list is including all networks (e.g. ESPN) for the sub-demos there.

Great ratings, wow! I was very sceptical of this tourney originally myself.

prediction USA-Finland 1.6 million

Good catch. It had NBC, ABC, CBS, FS1, Fox News etc for sub-demo totals but not ESPN.

I meant ESPN, do you have any NHL numbers in Finland you can post?

3.4m?

 

[GKJ]

USA/Canada on Saturday will do better than any NHL game this season and probably most playoff games too.

 

[Greatzsky 99]

3.4m?

? Does it not sound reasonable? about 1.85 in Canada.

3.4m?

Canada-Sweden had 4.1M combined NA audience.

The USA/Finland game was number one program in the US (Both network and cable) in all key demo categories. Saturday night USA/Canada feels like the moment is building. Let's hope for an overtime game.
