I don’t believe for a second that the attendance this season was better because they were in a playoff race up to game 81. This was a boring, unlikeable team that lost games in the first ten minutes at a rate not seen since 2001 era Mike Vernon.

I remember that Francis said on a podcast a few weeks ago that attendance at the Dome has already gone down. People are bored and frustrated with the current product on the ice, as they should be. I find it hard to believe revenue would’ve taken as baldy of a hit if they iced a rebuilding team instead of the maxed out cap team they decided to go with
