"The first exhibition game, you don't know if people are going to come out or not or how they're going to be, but we're having a wave in the first period as soon as the glass gets knocked out. . . and they're loud and the barn wasn't full, but it was louder than we've had the last few years [in Quad City]," said veteran forward and tough guy Peter Vandermeer, who ignited that crowd in the second period with a spirited tussle against Moose enforcer Matt McCue.
Sounds like Abbotsford fans love the energy of the Heat and vice versa. Also, what VDG had to say was great as well:

"It was just like I hoped it would be," Van Der Gulik said after the first exhibition game.
I guess we'll see if this support keeps up throughout the season.

I think they said they need 4000+ t0 break even; Lane Sweeting hoped to have 5000-6000 season tickets sold, but Darryl said yesterday on the FAN, he hoped for 4500-5000 fans per game
