Management is definitely deluded here. Glass seats for $60. $9 seats now $20. Its unfortunate because marketed correctly, even in a major league city, AHL hockey could be successful here again. Unfortunately they really missed the boat here. Do you think Joe Average is gonna regularly pluck down $30+ for a decent seat? I'm sure opening night will be packed, but by the middle of the season, it's gonna be a sea of empty seats as usual. <a href="http://hfboards.com/showthread.php?p=7342821#post7342821" rel="nofollow">http://hfboards.com/showthread.php?p=7342821#post7342821</a> Team name isn’t going to matter anyway, with prices like they are now offering.

They said they are still in th process of selecting a name and there willbe an announcement with press conference within the next 7 days. Just because they got a patent on one name of many doesn't mean they would use that name. They are actually smart in doing so because if they choose one of the names they patent they don't have to buy from an owner. The Dan Gilbert crew has denied this to be fact.

I think it goes without saying that OFB will sponsor an organized roadtrip to take in the Fighting Walleye's first visit to Giant Center in Hershey next season. Complete with a fish fry tailgate.
