When there's no hope. If the team is bad but making shortsighted moves that are obviously aimed at just getting in... well people notice that
People will pay to see young, exciting, hardworking players with potential... It's actually an easy sell imo
What they don't want to pay to watch is a collection of average players who are overpaid that have no hope of improving and have no chance of delivering. What's the point in that?
Get a good GM with a vision to build a hockey team from the ground up. Fans actually love that. Who doesn't like watching young players come in and grow right in front of your eyes?
The caveat is you need a good GM with a plan that he can sell the fanbase on... and he has to stick with it. Seems that is really tough to find. Probably an ownership thing
