And unfortunately, not many people care about either.

I reckon the Hockey game will get more viewers than the Barbaro thing.
Most people could care less about hockey.I happen to be one of the ones who like it.There is nothing like playoff hockey.The fact that this game went into 2 overtimes makes it more exciting.Hockey is an aquired taste.Having been a lifelong NY Ranger fan it's nice to see them back in the playoffs.A Stanley cup playoff game would never get interrupted unless of a major news story.I still remember when they cut away from a baseketball playoff game to show the white bronco chase.NBC also knows better because of the infamous Heidi bowl when they signed off from the Jets-Raiders game and the Raiders came back with 2 touchdowns with very little time to play and beat the Jets.
