Nope, doesn't work that way. The Flames 100% maximize revenue with their ticket pricing.
They strike what they believe to be the perfect balance of selling seats for the highest possible price with some empty seats (17000 sold at X dollars beats 19000 sold at less dollars). If advertising disappeared in a hypothetical scenario they wouldn't be able to tap into extra revenue that pisses off the fans, as that's what they're doing now, as far as the market will possibly bare.
They would at that point only start hurting their own bottom line while fans started to just watch from home.
