Louder cheering for Philly goals than Calgary goal...and Boston? yeah Iggy was there but they got the louder cheers too. Not to mention the Flames were booed for stopping an empty net attempt by a player ON THE OTHER TEAM

Its only going to get worse the more meaningless these games become for Calgary

You clearly weren't at the Pen's game for example then, or are you just using hyperbole to be dramatic?

You really have it tough...you should have been in the half full stadiums 15 years ago that had 50% fans of other teams and 50% empty seats...and no press level. times are good right now, just be happy there isn't a season ticket drive to keep the team here.

...and yes, there's some hyperbole there...but not much!

To be fair most of us that converted did not go back to the Jets. I would have a hard time believing many fans that moved here in the 90's (I moved here in '97) and still live here would jump back to the Jets. Back when I was cheering on the Coyotes and went to the dome there would be a few thousand of us. Now there might be close to 1000

Half?? Come on thats Riders math. (and I am a rider fan). At best they are 1/5th. To be at 1/5 that is about 4 fans per row. Yes they are louder. But that is because Calgary fans have lots of games to go to and cheer instead of just one. Its easy to get up for one game a year get loaded and be loud.
