Interesting story, in part because it further reinforces the silliness of thinking TV ratings for various teams in the US means anything. The Islanders get $20 million per season in TV revenue. San Jose? $7 million. But that might teach them to sign a 20-year deal. Or not, since they've called Bettman in to squeeze Comcast/NBC.
Story also notes the inevitable concern about the long term viability of SAP Center (it was small from the get go), and the possibility of moving to a new facility in Santa Clara. Or elsewhere.
The story also fits the long running narrative that the Sharks generally operate at a loss. Tripling their TV revenue to match the Sharks and Ducks would change that in a hurry though.
