Calgary is averaging 17500 attendance this season

Winnipeg is last at 13150, SJ 2nd last at 13500

Sure the Flames could fall into the 14000-15000 range next season if they are bottom 5 like I expect they will be , but that’s a drop of ~3000 tickets a game worse case scenario

People had already started to stop coming to watch this team before the rebuild .

The new stadium is coming and the worse case scenario IMO is to try and compete these next few years , have a bunch of 8-12 worse finishes , and then be forced into another /
True rebuild as the stadium opens

Take the pain now .
