vancouver hockey game sets canadian television sports ratings record
The Canada/U.S. men’s Olympic hockey game was the most-watched sports program in Canadian television history, CTV reported Monday.
The much-anticipated Sunday game in Vancouver drew an average audience of 10.6 million viewers, peaking at 13 million viewers, the network said in a press release.
“A total of 9.48 million viewers watched on CTV alone, the biggest audience yet for any event at Vancouver 2010, including the opening ceremony (8.95 million), while 1.08 million watched on V,” CTV said.
The game, won 5-3 by the U.S., had a larger audience than the Salt Lake City 2002 gold medal game that featured the same two teams and drew 10.3 million viewers.
