from NHL.com,
The National Hockey League posted record attendance for the month of November, attracting 3,367,547 fans to 199 games for a per-game average of 16,922. The per-game figure eclipsed the previous November high of 16,818 set during the League’s successful re-launch season in 2005 and was 2.3% ahead of last season’s 16,538.

I have a similar problem with the reporting of “attendance”.
Definition
American Heritage Dictionary - Cite This Source -
The act of attending.
The persons or number of persons that are present.
The frequency with which a person is present.
The reporting is misleading and I question the NHL’s grasp of the English language.
Selling tickets to corporations, while good for the NHL, it is not increasing the fan base.

Just think how much higher the figures would be if more than 8 people showed up to Capitals games!
