WGN-AM/Chicago delivered its highest digital ratings ever Wednesday night for its coverage of the Chicago Blackhawks 2013 Western Conference semifinals game 7 defeat of the Detroit Redwings. The game registered 22,917 simultaneous digital listeners at 10pm, the peak of the overtime playoff victory. Its previous streaming record of 11,771 was recorded on May 27 and the next closest was 10,318 during the Blackhawks Stanley Cup run on June 2, 2010.
As someone who has Wide Open West cable, which doesn't carry NBC Sports Network, I was among the record audience. Had to go to a bar/restaurant to watch the game last night.
