- On cable, average viewership on the NBC Sports Network, nee Versus, was
up 22% to 600,000 for its first two days of telecasts on April 11-12,
from 490,000 in 2011. (Other national data was available at presstime.)
Wednesday's and Thursday's combined coverage of the 2012 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs on both NBC Sports Network and CNBC combined for a total audience of 5.37 million viewers, a 31% increase versus 4.11 million last year, when NBC Sports Network, then known as Versus, was the only channel to show games.
