When I see the things that guys like Stern and Doman are trying to do, it makes me shake my head at how useless CSEC is. They have zero vision or creativity when it comes to marketing and branding. All their sports properties play in the oldest and dumpiest buildings in their respective leagues, they need to do more to lure fans to the games. Even the Flames are no longer selling out every game. The only good thing about CSEC is that they can always pay the bills and keep the lights on. In regards to being engaged and active owners, they pale in comparison to what the group led by Forzani was doing when they owned the team.

Victor Cui up in Edmonton is doing some really good things with the Elks as well it seems. I've seen some very creative ideas from them since he was hired and he is very much a man of the people by all accounts. The league needs to hire as many of these minds as possible.
