Niagara IceDogs 2020 Offseason Thread

[Drop the Puck]

The 12 year olds eating popcorn and getting jacked up on Mountain Dew really don’t care who is on the ice. Fans will come to watch any product that’s on the ice, sure you will lose a black sock or a mad dog or two, but, who really cares. Management has done a better than expected to put bums in the seats. Who cares what’s on the ice and if you win a Memorial Cup?

It’s a business. The funny thing is, every team gets a first round pick, after that it’s a crapshoot.

What’s the break even point, 3000 per game?

There’s no rule against having success on the ice AND at the box office.

How can you prove that this is tampering. Besides every team talks with players and players make NCAA commitment for leverage on where they will end up. I don't see how the league could pin tampering on the Rangers. Plus if he does play in the OHL over for say the NCAA it bring in more attention to the OHL that year.

Entertaining draft eve.

Is Zacharya Wisdom the brother of Zayde Wisdom of Kingston? If so, I hope he is half as good. Zayde is a hell of a player and he was drafted in the 4th round.
