Very true.

Neither will trying to be a Thrashers fan...

I'm convinced that the ownership actively hates their potential fan base


Yeah, the Thrashers ownership does seem pretty fricked up. Aside from Kovalchuk (sp?) was there anything going for that team?

At least in hockey towns up north, the fans seem to get a nice response from ownership...except in ticket prices.

Me and gf walked up to the HSBC Center after just finding out the Wings were in town. The Sabres had just been eliminated mathematically, and it was a Sunday night. Cheapest ticket was up top for $58. No thanks.

I actually do enjoy watching hockey on tv anyway.

My money says that he's gone really soon. He's basically our last "name" guy. Last Thrashers game I went to was against the Flyers. 7-0 later...

Thing is, the Thrashers have a great venue, and they have some great deals on ticket prices. They also have some cool package deals, like all you can eat sections, etc.

But they put a crap product on the ice, and when they get a good team, they try to make it mediocre or worse ASAP. It's very frustrating.

I may have to go back to following the Stars, if only to mess with certain people.
