SidneyCrosby posts

Sidney Crosby wasn't the only one to make history on Sunday - thanks to his overtime gold medal-winning goal against the United States - the Canadian public also scored one for the record books by making the event the most-watched television broadcast ever.

The moment was not only golden for Canada, but also for television broadcasters - in particular CTV, which tripled its average daily audience during the Vancouver Olympics and won every prime-time time slot. TSN also tripled its full-day audience to become the 2nd most-watched network in Canada during the Games, while Rogers Sportsnet came in third.
