Are they definitely getting a new arena? I know Sens fans think that will make a difference but it might be a lost cause.
Hopefully they stay in Ottawa. This is a crappy situation for their fans.

This is just sens fans voting with their cash. They want Melnyk out. Would you purchase season tickets and support that circus?
Sens fans are great fans. Passionate, and love their team but they have had enough and I'm sure no one can blame them. The only power the fans have to create change, is to vote with their cash.
If Melnyk sells the team, the fans will come back in droves. They also need a better location for an arena. I hope the franchise doesnt get moved before these 2 things happen for the fans.

“Honey, what’s this $19.99 charge on our Amex for Sens season tickets?”

Sens fans deserve so much better than Melnyk.

Some players owed him for Uber charges. Melnyk said they can pay him back by buying season tickets.
Hope the NHL steps in to mitigate the growing possibility of a relocation. So many high level bad decisions.
Feel bad for Sens fans as I am sure this is worrisome.

Melnyk wouldn't have the funding to uproot any franchise.
This is the best case scenario for the fans.
Sens fans are talking with their wallet, which is the only thing Melnyk cares about. All fingers point to him losing a lot of money every year.
As a Pens fan, you should be well aware of how hard the NHL works to keep teams in their current city.
The NHL has proven somewhat selective on which teams they really fight for.
I get the concept of voting with your wallet but this will directly hurt the viability of the team. It's a double edged sword
The league has seen first hand that Melnyk makes destructive comments by publically criticizing him for the comments during the outdoor game. Plus, all you have to do is look around town at the giant #MelnykOut billboards to know where the fans frustrations lie.
It’s not as black and white for relocation as “okay, the Sens aren’t selling season tickets. Let’s move them.” It’s going to be questions about if it’s a hockey market, which the Sens showed for years following the lockout. And it’s going to be a question if Ottawa fans would spend money, which they’ve shown through the CFL franchise.

the risk with Melnyk selling the team, is that it will probably be relocated right after...

Relocation has to be approved by the league. I'm sure the league wants an NHL team in the nations capital. The NHL has watched franchises like Carolina/Florida/Phoenix limp along for a decade+ I would hope they would give the Sens every chance to stay put as well.

The Senators won't relocate. The market has way too much potential.
If things get too bad Bettman has the power to force a sale.

The league wants $$, in the end of the day both Phoenix and Carolina will be relocated.

At least the bathroom and concession lines should be shorter unless they are playing the Leafs.
Good for Sens fans.
You can support the club without putting money in the pocket of their crappy owner.
This is a team that finished bottom five last year, where the three best players are about to go UFA and almost guaranteed to be sold off at the deadline, and doesn’t even own their 1st round pick.
This is a turd tornado blowing through the city at this point, I wouldn’t get season tickets in that scenario either
