For me the most obvious reason the final was a ratings dud was because the Devils lost the first two games at home and if you followed the Kings track record... Whatever interest there was among casual hockey fans probably died.
I thought the series was great. Tons of speed and skill. It was what Pitt versus Philly should have been until all the after the whistle stuff took over... I heard people complaining about what a joke that series was... then of course when NJ and LA play uptempo hockey without all the extra-curricular garbage... there's 'no emotion'. Sad.
