I do disagree a little bit though. When building a fan base, you have to get the kids. The 6-20s year old demographic. You get those fans by being winners, because kids love winners. Then they are fans for life. And their kids are fans. Look at the Bills in the 90s and most of our fanbase. How many lifelong fans did that Super Bowl era beget? Versus the 2000-2010 era? You're right, no absolutes. But success out of the gate is a positive when it comes to growing a fan base, IMO. Pretty interesting article here on the success of the Knights and the effect it could have on the fan base..its at the end but interesting read.Somewhat a blend of what you are saying here and what @eball and I think. http://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/23444016/2018-stanley-cup-playoffs-championship-too-much-too-soon-vegas-golden-knights-fan-base-nhl

Fadingpain Posted May 9, 2018 Posted May 9, 2018 This "no hockey" for 2 straight nights is killing me. Should be a good game tomorrow, at least I hope so. Would love to see Vegas keep winning.

The NHL doling out sweetheart rules of expansion for The Golden Kinghts and they win Stanley Cup in first year as this organization & fanbase chronically gets screwed by anything but sweetheat rules. What are the Buffalo Sabres (fans kept on crooked leash forever.) "Skate in crease rule" "Institute a draft lottery rule to stop perceived tanking", etc.. etc..

CowgirlsFan Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Always a first.? I blame my out of sorts baseball team. I knew something was amiss when the first period ended,they went to the commercial and the second period immediately began.?

CowgirlsFan Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 YEP! That's how it goes when the Rangers game is rebroadcasted.
Big C Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Those were some awful goals to allow, but that second one showcased how fast the Jets can play. Beating the defense down the ice and getting a couple pucks on the net.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) OMG What a blunder. Tampa scores with 6 men on the ice Penalty called with 7 seconds Caps get power play and score on the face off. 2-0 Caps!!! 1st Intermission Edited May 12, 2018 by ShadyBillsFan
Fadingpain Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 What a lousy game last night. After a really strong start to the playoffs, there have been quite a few lopsided games this year where you knew who was going to win pretty early on. I'm hoping for better tonight. The NHL and its advertisers must LOVE this final four among mega super markets: Vegas, Winnipeg, Tampa and DC. I wish we could have somehow gotten a Vegas vs. Winnipeg final, as I'd like one of those teams to win it all.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 Someone’s in a mood. Tampa was outscored 10-4 in total in their series openers. Now either they will get their crap together or Washington will win out. From what I heard NBCSN pushed for the Sunday 8 PM spot. So is it the NHL or the networks or both that want viewership?
