Cali lives there so he can answer best, but I have a friend in Miami who goes occasionally.
They are up in Fort Lauderdale, which is a better hockey geographic than Miami proper. However, south florida is Nascar and college football land. Miami is when the Heat are awesome great, otherwise we love soccer.
It is just a poor sports area period. Marlins barely draw, Heat are as fairweather as you get, Dolphins have a set fan set but aren’t a massive draw.
Hockey in this situation is about as after thought as you can get. If you play hockey you probably would like to go, but casual fan? Nope.
They should go to Quebec but I think their arena situation is not as dire as Arizona.
