The bandwagon ones won't continue to watch, but it's a drop in the bucket to the NHL either way.

What do you think Rogers is going to say when someone tries to relocate a Canadian franchise two years into a $5.2 billion deal? Over an arena no less. A franchise that sells out every game and has going back over a decade, where everyone in the city has at least a t-shirt if not an actual jersey, and Rogers is just gonna be like 'oh, okay, no problem. it's a drop in the bucket'?
They couldn't quit bitching about the poor tv numbers when none of the Canadian teams made the playoffs last year! They're not going to allow the Flames to move just cuz moar luxury suites!!!!!
