seattle isnt a hockey town, people dont play hockey up there
that fanbase will ONLY care about the team if they happen to be good (and no expansion teams ever start out good). so its just gonna be another phoenix or another shitty town like that
at least canada they will always care

its cuz only northern states actually understand the game, hence why we need more canadian teams
and also bc espn has no contract with the nhl so they dont feel the need to cover it for more than a couple minutes per a show. then they spend a half hour on what color lebrons mask is
basketball is one sport i have absolutely zero respect for. its a womens game

I'm sure people would have thought that about San Jose but I can tell you they looooove their Sharks, and they've never even been to a cup!

Here's a quote about when they were a newer, struggling team(92-93 era I believe), "Despite the Sharks' futility in the standings, the team led the NHL's merchandise sales with $150 million, accounting for 27% of the league's total and behind only NBA champions Chicago Bulls among all North American leagues.[6]"
I believe there's only been 5 seasons where they didn't make the playoffs so they've never really gone on long periods of sucking . But, you'd think the fact that they make the playoffs almost every year and never reach the cup would start to piss people off, but nobodies losing faith.

Endure said: well, i realize the last shot was shit that went in.. but define blew it...
sergei saved 22
fluery saved 44- thats double the shots with 1 more goal that went in...
so i disagree,
While i realize fleurys Last 2 goals Were Pathetic,
all in all, it was the penguins defense and offense that didnt produce. 44 saves is great

He did play great all game, but the last two goals were pretty horrendous as you said. That's the definition of blowing it.

There is a fuck ton of money to be made if we got an nhl and nba team. Enough said. Washington is fiercely loyal to its teams. A lot of you downplay it. But they are. A fucking line of trucks filled with hundred dolla bills is waiting for the person that brings teams up here.

Seattle has a Superbowl and an NBA championship. If they can get the stadium situation taken care of they have a good chance of getting hockey and a new basketball team. Seattle is the 15th largest metropolitan area in the U.S. with a population around 3.5 million.
There are several franchises in the NBA and NHL that consistently lack fan support and are ripe for a move.

Yep.
Seattle only has 700k people. But the area around it is connected. I call it the seattle area. They all have there own names but king county is the Seattle area. One massive growth of human building.

The mariners are 24th in attendance, the Super Bowl winning Seahawks were 18. Sounds like the teams will lack fan support there too.

That doesn't mean they weren't selling out, just that their stadium doesn't hold as many people. Dallas is #1 because it's fucking huge.

I watched the highlights for the M's game. There wasn't anybody there. Which isn't surprising obviously. You can tote your loyal flag all you want but losing isn't fun. I don't pay for tickets to see the home town lose. That isn't any fun.
