Nah, that is about the bottom of attendance numbers for this year. Last year we had a few games worse that that.
No, I meant the reaction on the concession side of things. If there are only 2,000 bums in seats, look for only one or two booths to be running. Otherwise the labour costs will eat up any profits.

Although smaller, Connor Federkow was equally as physical as NVV and also a better hitter and skater.
but less effective in the defensive zone with considerably more PIMs. I did like Federkow a lot as a player and a player for the IceDogs though

Not even close to being “less” effective!

Undrafted and played well enough to earn a pro contract.

I loved Federkow's intensity and the fact that he was always looking for the big hit. However, he got schooled many times and spent a lot of time in the penalty box. NVV is much better defensively.
Through 8 games, NVV has had good moments and been schooled his share along with leading the team in PIIMs.

Wow! You like to be right. Your opinions are appreciated, however, your constant arguing is not.

Really surprised how low the attendance has been. I would say there was maybe 2300 people there today. It’s especially surprising to see all the empty seats in the Plantinum/Gold sections. Those sections used to be full of season ticket holders. I wonder if DD regrets increasing prices by $2 per seat.

Nice weather and the NFL factor still more than Thursday night. I think he should have the kept the ticket prices the same.

More fans (announced attendance) than 3 of the 4 home games I believe he definitely shouldn’t have changed prices but let’s be honest that wouldn’t have changed anything

Doesn't strike me as the type who regrets anything.

Thanks for not answering the question at all*

Also for clarifying that if Roobroeck starts playing better than him, then he'll be better than him.
I already answered the question. Stop acting like I owe you anything beyond that. Also, I'd say Roobroeck is already better. So, enjoy your Monday

seats in the Plantinum/Gold sections.

Yep, this is where a lot of STHs were located. Several seats right around me are now empty. Those people told me they were done because they couldn't handle another losing year for the amount of money they paid and time it takes to attend the games.

There were also about 10 seats not far from me that were owned by a big local company. We noticed last year that about half the time all those seats were empty. This year they are for sale. I suspect they had a hard time giving the tickets away and realize they were wasting money.

Anyway. A deep playoff run will fix that problem!! Go Dogs!!!!!

If it's the Petes the return will be as small as can be. Can't see why they'd give up anything of value in a tank year.

I'd be surprised to see a trade happen before he's ready to play.
I think the return is small no matter who they move and where they go also pretty sure the Pete’s already have 3 OA forwards so I don’t understand this move for them if it happens
