It would be funny if Bettman moved the team to Phoenix.
LOL...that site you used was from 2017. Way to go.According to the Florida Panthers season tickets website full season plans....Upper centre tix at their arena as low as $21 per game 903 per season
Florida Panthers - New Sales
panthers.c1ms.com
According to Winnipeg Jets website those same upper deck centre Ice tickets are $67 a ticket. Tickets | Winnipeg Jets | Winnipeg Jets
so I guess Skidooboy.com knows more than you do about ticket prices?
ps I never said "Average price per ticket was $20" so stop strawmanning me.
wow….multitasking again…LOL...that site you used was from 2017. Way to go.
Gotta hurt that the Jets consistently put out a better on-ice product than certain big-market teams. One in particular.Winnipeg is not far from putting it all together and making a good cup run
Where else would you move it?It would be funny if Bettman moved the team to Phoenix.
Funny because when we re-signed Helle and Scheif all we heard was how stupid it was because we should be rebuilding. Chibrikov, Lambert, Yager, Heinola, Salomonsson. We're going to be okay.Winnipeg is not far from putting it all together and making a good cup run
Sounds like a problem that only $0.50 draft night can fix.... oh waitFunny because when we re-signed Helle and Scheif all we heard was how stupid it was because we should be rebuilding. Chibrikov, Lambert, Yager, Heinola, Salomonsson. We're going to be okay.
Regarding attendance. The front office F'd it right up by not doing anything for ticket holders. They treated fans like they are lucky to have a team people are going to line up to be a season ticket holder. Gave them no perks, no appreciation. Add increased prices and STH lost interest. True North scrambling to fix the problem now.
Your post does nothing but prove Winnipegs revenue is fine and comparable with teams that have much larger arenas that you seem to think are necessary. Jets aren't leaving Winnipeg, period.View attachment 918203
Ah...still just pulling random numbers. Here's your simple math. Florida and Winnipeg apparently make the same.

Also, no idea where you get your ticket pricing. Do you just spin some wheel and put down what it lands on??
Those tickets on stub hub were already purchased at full price with revenue going to the Winnipeg Jets. Try again.You can spend whatever you want but there were tons of tickets on Stub Hub for $25 (American) last year. Just because you want to use Ticketmaster doesn't mean there aren't other tickets out there for cheaper
the jets are given millions a year in cash for gambling from machines, they have crazy tax breaks and they still struggle. Its not really fineYour post does nothing but prove Winnipegs revenue is fine and comparable with teams that have much larger arenas that you seem to think are necessary.

This has nothing to do with the post you quoted. Don't like Jets getting money from those machines at Shark Club (which is owned and operated by the Jets ownership group) then don't go there, its not hard. What about all the tax breaks pretty much all large corporations get to entice them to setup shop in cities/provinces/states, for shit low paying jobs only to hide their profits in tax shelters overseas.the jets are given millions a year in cash for gambling from machines, they have crazy tax breaks and they still struggle.

wow….multitasking again…
not sure how the panthers website led me to the 2017 season….
must have miss-clicked a link….
ok still tix are 47 us.
vs 67 in Canada plus higher taxes.
I went to a lot of the Gen X era games, I came for the maximum effort and zero talent, but stayed for the booze and tradition of it all.apparently not
From 2011-2020 they were hitting on average 15,000+ and I don't think you understand that the struggles aren't even remotely bad. Just not good for business when you aren't hitting at what you were consistently hitting for 9 years straight.the jets are given millions a year in cash for gambling from machines, they have crazy tax breaks and they still struggle.

I can see why there is some concern if the team went fromFrom 2011-2020 they were hitting on average 15,000+ and I don't think you understand that the struggles aren't even remotely bad. Just not good for business when you aren't hitting at what you were consistently hitting for 9 years straight.
Capacity is 15,321 - at worst in that span they were hitting 97% capacity, at best 103% over capacity (went over 100% twice in that span).
2020-21 - Covid season, zero attendance league wide.
2021-22 - Attendance down for a lot, missed playoffs and hit 83% capacity.
2022-23 - 92% Capacity - Lost in Rd 1.
2023-24 - 88% Capacity - Lost in Rd 1
2024-25 - So far, 90% Capacity.
So yeah, it's over blown. The issue for the Jets is they need a new arena that's able to fit more fans and a better facility. They have the lowest Capacity in the league.
Devils were the next one to them at 16,514, but it's now Utah for now at 16,200 vs 15,321 - Utah being new without a proper NHL type arena having 879 more for capacity is a bad look on the Jets. For some insanely deep pocketed owners, wtf were they thinking? Zero faith in being able to fill it beyond that? They were proven wrong and still didn't make any adjustments or plans to rectify it.
I will argue for the Jets that their attendance is blow out of proportion.
Utah btw is at 11,131.
Which might look bad right now but it's double what Arizona did at College rinks where they couldn't even fill those to capacity. They'll grow.
Well there are only 800k people there. Not sure what you are expecting. Lol.It's Winnipeg... This is supposed to be a NFL like market for Hockey I was told. Ottawa being on this list is dissapointing too but they are between Toronto and Montreal.
I've said repeatedly that the Jets will be fine. I've never said they were leaving and don't believe they will. The person I was posting with doesn't think sunbelt teams have any interest in hockey and make any money. I just found it humorous that, once his team (temporarily) struggles, everything is just fine.Your post does nothing but prove Winnipegs revenue is fine and comparable with teams that have much larger arenas that you seem to think are necessary.

Winnipeg is fine. They’re aren’t going anywhere. But when people wonder why QC doesn’t get a team, it’s this. It’s a complete myth that small market Canada is high floor.
The economy is cyclical and when times are down, the smaller markets within Canada traditionally feel the squeeze first.
The love and passion for the game won't stand on its own.
