internet broadcasts

I was just wondering if any Rapidz fans listen to the internet broadcasts when Ottawa is out of town..and also to all others teams fans what would be the average listening audience for a can-am game(approx)...just curious

As I'm francophone, I listen to the French broadcast on radio. But I do occasionally listen in on our opponent's Internet broadcast, when available.

As for audience size, that would be hard to pin down. I do know that the Lynx got 500 to 1000 a couple years ago on the Internet. I would expect the same kinds of numbers for the Rapidz. This out of a population of one million, 25% francophone. So CJRC probably gets at least a few hundred on average.

I would therefore expect similar numbers for other Can-Am teams, up to 1000 listeners per million population. This of course would depend on the team's marketing and competition. New Jersey is competing against the Mets and Yankees as well as many other minor league teams. Most other Can-Am teams are as well.
