A Very Special This Week In Hockey

by Justin Meyer

We’re going to go around the blogosphere twice this week, today and tomorrow.  Today, I want to look at something that I mentioned in passing, here.  The issue for today is NBC’s decision to switch away from hockey for the Preakness.

Behind the Jersey is a good place to start as Christy has a great summary of some of the commentary posted.  James Mirtle also does a good job of giving a few sites to read on this one.

Speaking for the angry fans, Bethany over at the NHL Arena Program posted her e-mail to NBC.

Both Kuklas Korner and Andrew’s Dallas Stars & NHL Blog have ratings information for the games and the race.

Kuklas Korner is a good place to end this week also, as it’s there that we find the NHL’s response, more criticism, and finally, NBC’s response.
