Those that won't re up will be replaced by those on the Hothouse waiting list. Still we are along ways away from being the team that played in the Dome that was half empty.
Well, the Flames shouldn't(no reason for it) be a cap team next year, and my prediction is based on the assumption that many that jumped on the hot house are not going to be different than season ticket holders in not wanting to hold onto 45 games for a few down years. I'm sure many join under the assumption that friends and family will buy/use the tickets but as they hear and see stories of these tickets being hard to get rid of, will they really want to buy seasons? Is it not easier to just buy a game pack(which the Flames are making more of)?
