It was the most-watched Games in the U.S. since 2014, and the gold medal men’s hockey game — despite starting at 8 a.m. ET on Sunday — averaged 18.6 million viewers during its broadcast, including a peak of 26 million who tuned in to see the winning goal in overtime.
We’ll talk more about that in this week’s quiz, along with some news from the NFL Scouting Combine, a little tidbit about the fast-approaching World Baseball Classic and much more.
