There can be both. Addition by subtraction and addition by addtion

I think Hutton's empty net try was closer to scoring than anything Elie has done this year

A big part of the problem about teams in non-traditional markets is they don't win on the ice.

Hockey does just fine in So-Cal, Tampa, Nashville and in Dallas.

But Carolina, Florida, and Arizona well the teams on the ice suck.

People will come watch a winning product. During Florida's cup run in the 90's they rocked their arena. But they haven't won anything since.

Build a good team and people will come.

It’s true in traditional markets as well
Attendance here in Buffalo in the years before the ‘05-‘06 season wasn’t all that great
Many nights with many empty seats

said thing is if okposo, sheary, casey, tage, pommer and sobotka play average, we are right there with the leafs

top line plays great

4th line holds it's own

D is much better as is our goaltending

F@CKING SUCKS

- homiedclown


What makes it even worse is that these guys were brought in to bolster our depth
*even though he’s gone, Berglund is in this group as well

I hope Phil & Botts have some plans to really switch thing up a bit
Really need to at least get a 2nd line that can consistently contribute

Each one of those also has an arena that's not the easiest to get to. That makes it doubly hard to draw people.

I am not upset, we are having a debate.

If she wasn't a gimmick they would have let her play in the game.

Clearly the NHL felt she wasn't good enough.

You were conned you just don't want to admit it.

How could you possibly know why they didn't have her and the other women present play in the game?

No, I think it would be awesome to see 15 men and 15 women in the ALL-Star game.

That would be incredible to watch but I guess we should be thankful they let that one lady skate around.

Yeah, because progress goes from total inequality to total equality with no intermediate steps. JFC dude...
