Can the argument be made in areas that have poor attendance in the south as poor marketing? I feel like people don't have a problem embracing hockey,BUT you need to get them to see the first game otherwise TV hockey is all they know.TV is crap for hockey tho i find myself watching away games anyways, its not the same as being at the game supporting your team.People that don't know Hockey need a little push to get them there and well once there we all know how fun it can be.

1 Great action as much as any NFL game
2 Cheaper than NFL and NBA and there are no "Bad Seats"
3 More convenient than most sports in America,games are short and traffic generally is easier to deal with.

4 You have time to enjoy stadium food without missing the game standing in line
5 A good number of home game's during the year makes sharing season tickets easier
6 fun crowd
7 Fights!
