FINALS UPDATE: Press Your Luck (0.9), Card Sharks (0.8) and Match Game (0.7) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:

• Free from Stanley Cup competition, it was mostly good news for the Wednesday week twos. ABC's game show newbies Press Your Luck (1.0) and Card Sharks (0.9) each picked up a tenth, while Match Game (0.8) was even at 10/9c. And Fox newbie First Responders Live (0.6) also inched up in its second week.

• The veterans were mostly steady, including MasterChef (0.7), Jane the Virgin (0.2) and the CBS originals (0.8/0.3). The lone decliner was NBC drama The InBetween (0.4), back from a week off and with a worse lead-in from Ellen's Game of Games repeats (0.5/0.7).

FINALS UPDATE: Stanley Cup Finals (2.7, +0.2) adjusted up while Card Sharks (0.8) and NCIS: The Cases They Can't Forget (0.3) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:

• ABC's new night of game shows showed almost as much strength as the old night of game shows. Newbies Press Your Luck (0.9) and Card Sharks (0.9) along with returnee Match Game (0.8) were all basically in line with the premiere results for the veteran Sunday lineup.

• Press Your Luck managed to beat out reality staples The Amazing Race (0.8) and MasterChef (0.7) in the 8/7c hour, and there was even less interest at 9/8c in the new MasterChef lead-out First Responders Live (0.5).
  

• All this came against a decisive seventh game of the Stanley Cup Finals (2.2/2.7/2.7) on NBC, which looks to have gone at least a half point ahead of Game 6 on Sunday.
