CABLE HIGHLIGHTS:  NBC Sports Net took the night with 0.99 for Game 3 of the STANLEY CUP FINALS.  (We don’t normally report on the theatrical movies that networks list as “originals,” but it’s worth noting that THE MARTIAN scored a very solid 0.69 in its HBO debut, and a non-premiere 1:40PM showing of THE INTERN wasn’t shabby at 0.29.)  Adult Swim has switched up its late-night animated schedule:  it led off with MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM at 0.50, then HUNTER X HUNTER was at 0.43/1.037M, SAMURAI CHAMPLOO at 0.36/874K, NARUTO at 0.34/802K, ONE PIECE 0.31/729K, and PARASYTE at 0.27/606K.  Univision scored 0.40 with a COPA AMERICA match.  Spike’s COPS was at 0.35.  On HGTV, HOUSE HUNTERS RENOVATION was at 0.32, and LIVING BIG SKY had the same rating.  HBO’s BOXING coverage was at 0.31/0.25/0.24/0.23.  Lifetime’s movie YOU MAY NOW KILL THE BRIDE was at 0.30, and Hallmark’s movie MS MATCHED was at 0.22.  On Food Network, KITCHEN AT FN rose 0.03 to 0.29, PIONEER WOMAN was down 0.03 to 0.24, and FARMHOUSE RULES ticked up to 0.22.  Starz’s OUTLANDER fell 0.05 to 0.17.
