Looking At Attendance

from Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette,
Across the league, attendance is up 1.2 per cent from last year, but a close look at the numbers indicates commissioner Gary Bettman’s boast about a healthy league might be a tad optimistic. While attendance through Nov. 10 is up 1.2 per cent, the entire increase is because of a phenomenal turnaround in Chicago....
The only good news when you look at the struggling franchises in Long Island, Nashville, Florida, Atlanta and Columbus is that there is no shortage of teams that would look good down the line in Winnipeg, Hamilton, Kitchener-Waterloo or Quebec City.
