The good news is that geostationary is a very narrow ring and even if the asteroid travelled within that radius, the likelihood of collision with a comms sat is vanishingly small.
The bad news is, as you say, that's awful damn close. And we only had one days' advance notice... If it hit a city it'd make one hell of a mess.
unless it hit detroit then folks would have a reason to visit save haveing to drive to arizona
