Why is the game starting so late(8:30pm Dallas time)
April 22, 2024
Does the NHL want Dallas to loose? The game basically ends at midnight or smth.

Because it’s a split market, in 2 time zones, and playoffs are supposed to be as close to prime time as possible. Central time zones are routinely screwed in cases like this.
To punish the Stars fan who lives in the east coast. It’s part of the same NHL conspiracy to aid the VGK, circumvent the cap and have an easy schedule down the stretch.
So I can watch the game! I can’t wake up at 2 AM on a work day, but I can manage a 3:30 alarm.
I have no problem with a 4:30 start time. The Stars are the one seed and kinda getting screwed over. I wish our games started earlier than 7 regularly.
This is fucked if I were to be honest. I actually will feel bad for Stars fans in that regard, because as someone who has been apart of late ass starts, including banner raising night, I can attest those are ROUGH!
