Why aren't there more fans watching?

Because it's in Pittsburgh, duh.
But really who's going to skip out of work for a pre-tournament game?
Unfortunately, they're kind of fighting for the same spot in the lineup, if Thornton is going back to centre.
I'd like to see that, as well, though. The had great chemistry at the WHC.
Marchand-Crosby-Bergeron
Tavares-Toews-Stamkos
Thornton/Duchene/Couture-Getzlaf-Perry
Thornton/Duchene/Couture-Giroux-Seguin
With one of Duchene/Couture sitting.
If Giroux's injury is more serious, though, I'm not bothered with him missing the last pre-tournament game and possibly a game or two in the tournament. Inevitably someone is going to get hurt, so he'll be back in even if he is the 13th forward.
Neuvirth is starting... does that mean he's the likely starter for the real games?
IMO he looked better than Mrazek and seems to be ready, but IIRC Mrazek is still coming up today for the latter half of the game
Oh, ok. Thanks.
Is this game on ESPN 3 again? The NHL should have never sold the broadcasting rights to this tourney to ESPN. They have noting but junk on all their networks right now.
Awful decision. Perfect way to hide the tournament sending it to ESPN3
It's my opinion.
Hopefully the money was worth it. From a fan perspective this tournament would have been better on NBC. A network that actually gives a **** about the sport.

I think this warmup game might have only been online if it was NBC.
