Game 4 draws 3rd-best NBCSN Stanley Cup Final audience

NEW YORK (AP) Game 4 has drawn the third-largest audience for the Stanley Cup Final on NBCSN.

The Chicago Blackhawks' 2-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night averaged more than 3.9 million viewers.

NBC said Thursday that was up 16 percent from the nearly 3.4 million for last year's Game 4 between the Los Angeles Kings and New York Rangers, which was a potential clincher.

The only two games with bigger audiences came in the 2013 series between the Blackhawks and Boston Bruins.
