I've said it before and I'll say it again. The Capital area is a crappy sports market. How many times do you have to blame crappy teams or crappy owners? They've lost their football team twice and almost lost the Sens before Melnyk stepped up. When the federal government is your largest employer and you have a limited corporate base, that does not bode well for revenues. Should have never been awarded an expansion franchise, only got it because Tampa and Ottawa were the only ones to pony up the full expansion fee.
