I don’t understand why the Panthers have such a tough time filling seats during the regular—they’ve had competitive teams most seasons. Maybe a cup win will turn that trend around.

I think they went 10+ years w/out even making the playoffs up until a couple of years ago. Add to that the fact that FL sports fans are about the worst in the country when it comes to actually showing up for games, and it is what it is.

I was surprised that I read this year their home games were 86% sold out. This is bolstered by all the northern snowbird hockey fans showing up in droves though.

Miami is an awful sports town in many respects, and it has no business hosting a professional franchise in a cold-weather sport like ice hockey.
