If the Coyotes aren't competitive, I don't think we have seen the low point yet. If the community knows that the team is likely to move in 7 years, who is going to get invested in the team? It could be a lame duck franchise, like the last days of the Expos. __________________

Key is they COULD move in 7 years and yes we have seen a low point. Prior to the last 2 years they didn't make the playoffs for 7. The reason there wasn't such an upswing in attendance during the playoff years was the ownership instability. They get an owner and a good team or even just an owner and things will pick up. Getting an owner with a clue and a marketing background combined with the GM and coach in place now and they can only go up.
