Oh man, it's a team run by people think that they're the smartest person in the room but believe 2 + 2 = potatoe.
Attendance is embarrassingly low, which is obviously the fans fault. Not the lack of marketing, community involvement, communication and honesty with fans, or $20/ticket but 4/$50 which is such a deep discount it essentialy eliminates walk up sales in a market where the consumer base is walkups. Season ticket holder advantages: you get the same seat and if you miss a game, you can give away tickets to a redemption night to someone else!
Mention any of these issues to the team, and you're the idiot.
Meanwhile I'm sitting here in Centre 200 with like 1,500 of my closest friends? 2,000 maybe. And if I wanted to buy my son a jersey, shirt or souvenir, I'd have to take my ticket and leave the arena to get to the team store. EDIT: Just checked the paid attendance (not necessarily what was in the rink... 1,529).
It might be Saturday afternoon but still should be 3,500-3,800 here. Rink seats 5,200ish.
