You also give away a bunch of tickets to schools. You are basically hoping people with kids take in both games and it catches on and organically builds some interest. Like, we are going with the kids to the Flames games - might as well go early, have some dinner and watch the women. Maybe can generate enough concessions to offset some of the sunk costs. There is no way anybody is paying money to watch it otherwise, so you have to ride the coat-tails, and hope the product can improve enough over time to generate interest.
For something like that, you'd probably be starting that game before 5 pm. You'd need time for two floods and for the Flames warm up as well. Not to mention time to get people without NHL tickets to get out of the building. I don't think people would be showing up at 430 pm and stay until the end of the Flames game, especially with kids.
