Hockey In Florida Is Comical

[Shame About Ray]

Strange, if you’re not convinced that hockey isn’t meant to be played in Florida, take a look at the Panthers’ latest strategy.

They’ve offered fans a “name your price” Perfect Plan ticket promotion. Fans can bid on virtually any seats and find out within 24 hours if their price has been “accepted.”

It’s a great promotion but you have to wonder if the franchise would need to woo fans like this if it moved to, say, Quebec City.

in one week, four NHL buildings failed to get 9500 fans out to their games. atlanta had 8700 in one game!

the writing is on the wall when some WNBA teams outdraw their NHL cousins in some cities.
