NBA > NHL

Nashville is the only reason I watch. I'm a bigger Preds fan than grizzlies fan, just because I associate with Nashville more than Memphis. But basketball always > hockey. Hockey is still fun. I'm just no longer going to watch if Nashville is eliminated. Not that losing game 1 in OT on the road is any indication they're going to be eliminated.

NHL >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>NBA

It's not even close. If it weren't for Memphis I wouldn't follow the NBA

I'm kind of the opposite.

I follow the Predators during the season and marginally follow the rest of the NHL, but with the NBA I only follow the Grizzlies and just kind of spot check the rest of the NBA.

When the playoffs hit in both, I usually start paying attenion to the NHL but with the NBA I usually don't until at least the conference finals usually moreso the finals. With the Grizzlies in I'm following more closely.

I don't have the attention span to follow both regular seasons like I do football.

The NBA is a joke and fixed league. It's glorified street jams with no def and a bunch of whining prima donnas. Practically every series in this years playoffs have been fun to watch. Good hockey being played all around. It's a much better game than the NBA.

Jonathan Quick. Probably playing the best out of any goalie in the postseason

Fun Fact: 52% of NHL players are from Canada. A Canadian team hasn't won an NHL championship in 19 years.

Team management is the problem.................and the fact that there are only 7 out of 30 teams located in the states. 7 only with the new Winnipeg team
