Description

Despite being upper half/3rd of attendance & top 10 for cost of ticktes in last 20 years. At same time being one of most abysmal teams for on ice success & playing in a metro area over 1.5 M in hockey crazed country (& only real game in town), however keep hearing Cgy described as a small market team. Small market based on NHL players wives, so if ownership pivoted to stop trying to win; reduce cost of tickets & look for cost cutting.
Embracing full on tank for Bedard & see through rebuild with top 3 picks for first time ever.
