I blame the microscopic ratings on the network's availability. It's only in like 77-80 million homes compared to ESPN's 100 million.

The ratings aren't microscopic at all. There was no reason to describe them as such. The cable ratings are absolutely fantastic. Through the roof, even. The broadcast ratings are very small, but the NHL is doing amazing on cable.
