They dont require empty seats to know whats going on, they arent idiots. They DO need to have the cajones to do what needs to be done.

However I am on the side of not letting feaster drive over that cliff though as i question his abilities of simple things after the ROR fiasco...so its a rock and a hard place time.
You are under-estimating the visual impact of rows upon rows of empty seats to the owners, management and players on this team. Knowing you play in a wealthy hockey town but can't fill your own barn - is really an embarrassment. It actually makes it worse when you know those seats have been paid for, and folks still can't be bothered to come and watch your product.

so i'd say the fact those empty seats would be paid for ... actually sends a stronger message for change.

agreed. the owners aren't idiots. But i do think they need to see empty seats.
