I think the one reason attendance is hurting (aside from the record/prices) has been the move to the MCI Center. Tougher for the Maryland (where a lot of the support came from) folks to get there on a nightly basis.

Interesting, I would think that having a downtown arena with Metro accessibility would generate even more fan support. Plus...they had Jagr! I just can't believe still that for two years Jagr and Jordan were both playing at MCI Center and really we have nothing to show for it now
