Since you want to take this argument to a higher-level i think it's funny you bring in Senator attendence into the league. Currently they stand 16th in average # of bodies in the stands, which is pretty good considering capacity for the Corel Centre is lower than the average for some teams...But, judging by your hockey-knowledge (after-all you do cheer for a great franchise) i shouldn't have to tell you about the epidemic of poor attendence around the league. And these teams suffering from poor attendence are not exclusive to the sun-belt area...two are original six teams; Boston was at the top of the league for most of the season.
Next month I'm going to a Sens game vs T.B., the ticket-prices now are staggering. If a family of four were to go to a game, sitting in the most-expensive seats, costs would total approximately $800 Can. (parking, food and beverages, etc.). To me, nothing less than the super-bowl or a world cup (Canada cup) match - which i have seen - are worth that price.
I'm willing to make any one of you leaf fans a bet that Ottawa will go further than toronto in the playoffs...how's this sound, the loser can't post until the start of the next season in October?
Any takers - put your money where your mouth is...

I don't think anyone would take it. You never post sober anyways.
