Good thing they don't have "Hockeytown" printed at center ice, otherwise there would be a shitstorm brewing.

They're down 4,000+ per home game so far this season...Better get the moving trucks ready. Big game tonight against the Flyers.

I noticed this the other night and was pretty surprised. Considering the source, I kinda had a feeling that it might have been a mistake. Looks like that was the case as it's now showing Montreal in their usual #2 spot again between Chicago and Detroit and at 100% capacity.

Kings are getting screwed in that. The 2 home games in Europe were in smaller buildings, and were sold out. however they are counting those games against the 18+ that Staples can hold. Kings have sold out every game at home so far but because some of the games were in smaller buildings they make it look like there were empty seats
Oh well Stupid ESPN

Nice catch, julian. The Flames have tumbled down the rankings in their latest update, yet every home this season has been a sell-out. Come on ESPN, get your shit together.

Same thing with the Sabres Dave. They counted the game in Finland that was sold out but the arena only holds just over 13K. Oh well.
