    Like Australian interest in Soccer leading up to the 2006 world cup.

    Try living in Michigan and you’ll be singing a different tune. There is a nearly Canadian interest in hockey in America, it’s just relegated to certain states.

    • I actually live in a hockeytown, about 30 minutes from canada so i know exactly what you’re talking about. i’m originally from california though and can’t remember single instance of someone talking about hockey.

        At least California has a hockey team – I grew up in New Mexico and wouldn’t have known hockey from lacrosse! (or is that lacrosse from field hockey? something like that…)

  • Hey Bettman, take note.

    (Bettman’s the NHL commissioner, who wants to skip the Olympics next time. He doesn’t understand that this is his chance to capitalize on this sudden interest.)

  • This is the best graph ever. I feel better about the game already. Thanks.

    Nathan, funny chart.

    FiZ. I live in Michigan and work in Detroit (aka Hockeytown). I couldn’t care less about hockey. Your comment and Nathan’s graph cause me to sympathize with those Candians that are not hockey fans.

    The peak of my interest: I kind of wish I would have watched the game. Oh well.
