Well considering that like half the US roster is from St. Louis, MO that would make an awful lot of sense. But they lost out to Buffalo for whatever reason.

10 out of the 23 players are from Minnesota, 3 are from Missouri.

The Twin Cities is a better hockey market and is also a border state. The problem is that Winnipeg is the closest major Canadian city.

Still though, even if it was a 8pm game I have my doubts attendance would be that much better

I doubt it too but it doesn't seem like the Canadians are going much either. You add high ticket prices with a meh city like Buffalo and it's really not surprising.

Yeah I think event organizers were looking and 2011 and assuming that Canadian fans would flock to Buffalo again this year. I'm intrigued to know the price difference between this year and 2011 because regardless of the weather there is a sizable difference between Canadian turnout this year and 2011.
