The presence of a Canadian team in the final, the drama of a Game 7, Edmonton attempting to rally from a 3-0 series hole with super star Connor McDavid leading the charge, are all reasons for the viewing bump. The record numbers are a huge leap forward for the National Hockey League and hockey fans everywhere, and Commissioner Gary Bettman must be thrilled to see this milestone.
