Neil Best is reporting in Newsday that Islanders t.v ratings are up 250% compared to last season!!!! Hockey tv ratings seem to be up all across the board also. Was there finally some good marketing of the game that I missed? Maybe it was the Uptown girl?

Better on-ice product + cheaper HDTV's that showcase the game in all it's beauty = higher ratings!

Combo-
BETTER TEAM & GREAT Marketing: Silly's 1000th, ARBOUR DAY, Military Appreciation Day, Uptown Girl, etc! Even Hilary Duff being around probably helps- my kids love her!

We have a hardworking group and have had contributions from all around the team. The TEAM chemistry is great!

LET'S GO ISLANDERS!

I've also noticed that they've been putting the Isles on FSNY while the Devils have been getting more time on FSNY2, that might help.

The team with home game gets FSNY, the away team gets FSN2.

And Rezoob was right. Whichever team is cabaple of having the broadcast in HD gets FSNY. If both teams are home the Devils usually get it because they get better ratings.

Better team??? I think we are. But werent we in first place at a later point in the season last year.... maybe even into december. Basically until yashins knee injury.

Like last year we are always picked to be bad, and people arent that smart and quick to pick up on us especially because we arent in first due to our light schedule.

I would say I am shocked that we up so much, but we had so few people watching last week, that if one big family moved to the island from canada that could account for a substantial increase in itself...heheeh.
