Except that the Jets attendance woes are due to different circumstances than the Flames. The Flames are icing a mediocre product, whereas the Jets attendance is due to high ticket prices. The Jets lowered their ticket prices this season, but the cheapest season tickets still work out to $62/game to sit in the nosebleeds. PL season tickets at the Dome are considerably less expensive than that by comparison.
Jets attendance is up 4% since the February 2024, but it doesn't matter how good the team is. Barring a miracle like a really deep playoff run or cup win, they won't fill the arena to 100% at their current ticket prices. Jets fans have proven this over the past two seasons.
