SimonSin 192 Report post Posted November 16, 2014 Who cares if it's as packed as the Chicago game. Point being it will still be packed, and I'm betting we are out numbered in fans just like when the Leafs show up. Toronto is closer than Montreal. There won't be as many Habs fans.

SimonSin 192 Report post Posted November 16, 2014 Yes, because all Hab fans live in Montreal. ALL Habs fans don't live in Montreal but Toronto is only 4 hours away and that's why there are a lot of Leafs fans at the Joe when the Wings play them. A lot of those fans make the trip from Toronto.

PavelValerievichDatsyuk 1,935 Report post Posted November 16, 2014 I live in Texas. I know all about football freaks, Heaven help me, they're lunatics for football here... and pretend to know nothing of hockey. This, despite the FACT that the current Calder Cup winning team sells out every single game here in Austin. It's all about the money, and which franchise gets the tv dollars flowing, etc. If I lived in or near Detroit, I would certainly have season tix to the Wings. But I guess having such a great franchise right under their noses makes some locals complacent. Very lucky to live near enough to attend... But when they do actually appreciate hockey in your city and there's a great franchise, sadly, you can't afford any of the tickets. 1 puckloo39 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted November 16, 2014 I understand some consider attendance to be a problem, but this is not a discussion we need to have in every single GDT. Please start a separate attendance thread if you'd like to pursue the topic. 5 krsmith17, GoWings1905, MidMichSteve and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

derblaueClaus 1,668 Report post Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) I see, BoS is cheating on us. Some big games ahead, including this one. The other teams around us lost so if we win them we can put some distance between us and Boston/Ottawa/Toronto. LGW !

Yeah, but Ozzie was a pastmaster at knocking the net off its moorings and not getting called for it. I think we owe karma a few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MidMichSteve 1,115 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 You fail to understand? With all due respect, this is a FOOTBALL COUNTRY. You can put "Hockeytown" in the middle of the ice but people care more about the Lions in this town than they do hockey. And that's just the truth. Football SUCKS! 2 Hockeymom1960 and TheXym reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nmuwildcat 9 Report post Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) The Joe WAS packed against the Hawks. It won't be as packed tonight. That's because it's cheaper to drive from Chicago, buy two Wings tickets, pay for gas, pay for a hotel room, and drive back than it is to get two tickets to the United Center. As a Wings fan stuck in Hockey Hell... I mean Chicagoland... I'd rather drive to Detroit for games anyway.
