Could New Orleans support an AHL team?

I’ve been to a few Texas Star games, they were fun. Cheap tickets and beer.

What were the New Orleans Brass?

I'm a big fan of the Shreveport Mudbugs

Lafayette could

Here's the AHL attendance numbers btw.

Each situation is unique. San Diego has great attendance. Albany, NY is dead last.

Mudbugs are awesome, glad they were able to come back.

I think with New Orleans it would take the right marketing and price point to make it work. New Orleans Arena may not be willing to give up the dates for hockey as they have a pretty packed schedule.

Finding the right arena might be the biggest problem. Not sure if Lakefront is set up to have ice or not.

I miss the days of the River Rats team. Used to have one of the jerseys. Any numbers on how they're doing switching to Binghamton, with Ottawa's team in Belleville?

Binghamton is averaging 4897 spectators.

You're seriously asking if NOLA would support a hockey team?

Is the quality play good in the AHL? Are the ticket prices cheaper than NHL? Are NBA arenas too big for the AHL?

Yes
Yes
No, the Lake Erie Monsters play in the Q for example
