Why does Winnipeg need to be in the top 10 to be a viable team in some people's eyes?
This is their market, this is the size of rink they can fill, what the heck is the problem?

There's nothing wrong with middle of the pack revenues but you missed the point in that middle of the pack is their peak. This is as good as it's going to get in the current building. There is nowhere to go but down from there and when it does go down we will be talking about the smallest Canadian market making bottom 1/3 revenues. Maybe not the end of the world but not exactly good. Throw in the fact that Winnipeg is likely the least desirable team of all the Canadian teams to most UFA's and you can see that the Jets have a lot of obstacles in their path.
