Though considered by most to be the fourth major sports league in this country (fifth for those of you that consider NASCAR a sport), in my opinion, no playoffs can match the experience that comes about during the NHL playoffs. Hockey is the best sport in the world to watch live. Unfortunately, NHL stadiums only seat around 21,000 fans, which limits the number of people that can experience the NHL playoffs to the full effect in each year. If you check the backs of the seats during the NHL playoffs, you’re likely to find layers of dust — since during the playoffs the only part of the seats fans need is the edge.
