An equity injection wont solve the problem. Melnyk needs to be gone and upper management needs to be replaced before there is a culture change.
Lol...
If EM were to be able to convince someone else to come on board to inject cash into the franchise, and guys like you still boycott the team, there would absolutely zero argument the NHL could make to keep the team in a city that clearly doesn't desire an NHL franchise.
Fans don't get to pick the owners, it is what it it, you only get to decide to attend games or not. If EM makes a big move to solve the financial issue surrounding the team by adding an owner to the mix, and the fans still don't come out, it will be time to dust out your old Habs or Leafs jerseys.
This is why your version of 'boycotting' is such a joke. Guys like you don't care about the team or the franchise, the end game isn't a more stable franchise and a competitive team on the ice, no matter how that happens, you care only about your petty one-side vengeance crusade, and it has your wrapped up in a little hate pretzel because the focus of your hate doesn't know or care about you.
And why would he? A solid product on the ice will bring fans back, a new arena will bring new fans out, a new ownership partner would show a commitment to spending on the team, which would bring many boycotting fans back.
I can respect boycotting from most fans, but not your group, you guys want EM to hurt more than you want the team the heal, and there is nothing about being a sports team fan in that.
