Mackcanuck Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Well the Predators success is even better at the turnstiles. A warm climate expansion team success story. Proof, A well run team can thrive in a warm climate City. http://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/nhl/predators/2014/12/31/predators-success-adds-attendance-record/21119927/ The Predators are a popular ticket this season in Nashville. The latest sign was Tuesday night's draw of 17,401 fans at Bridgestone Arena. The crowd set the franchise's single-game home attendance record in the 3-2 win over Central Divison rival St. Louis. "I think it starts with what the guys on the ice are doing; it's just an incredible year," Predators CEO Jeff Cogen said. "Certainly our passionate fans are appreciating that and coming out in droves. And our success has created additional fans." Tuesday's attendance topped the previous record of 17,355 set on April 12 against Chicago in the final home game last season. Of the 17 games played at Bridgestone Arena this season, 13 have been sold out, including eight standing room-only crowds. "It's clearly more casual fans buying individual game night tickets," Cogen said. "It's also the people who were buying individual tickets are now stepping up and buying mini plans, the people who were buying mini plans are upgrading to fulls — there's just this positive momentum across all facets to what we're doing." The Predators are 14-2-1 at home after Tuesday's win, and no team in the NHL has fewer home losses. Nashville is contending for first place in the Central Division with Chicago and St. Louis, holding the top spot for most of October and November. Cogen said there are other contributing factors in the attendance figures. He cited the two new ice sheets at Antioch's Ford Ice Center in exposing new fans to the game, increased television ratings, and sales and marketing efforts. "I think if you throw all of those elements together it ends up with the relative success we're having," he said. The Predators have drawn an announced total of 287,646 fans to home games this season, which puts Bridgestone Arena at 98.9 percent of capacity. The best percentage in franchise history was during the lockout-shortened season in 2012-13 at 99.2 percent in 24 games. Last season, the Predators sold out 19 of their 41 home games and drew 680,619 fans.

ActiveDouble Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 A lot of their success comes from their d crop. And Ribeiro. Yes, the washed up, cancer, Ribeiro. And their young guns are really rifling it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaner Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Neal has clearly made a huge difference in the offensive side. He is there scoring threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanTSN Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 We should have picked up Ribeiro. Then we'd at least have some secondary offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Korea Bob.Loblaw Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Nashville's team is like a bunch of old rejects duct taped together in a way that we might see in video games as GM. It's not supposed to actually work in real life. But if Rinne doesn't take the Vezina this year he will be robbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatedkid666 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 The reason they didn't make the playoffs last was because Rinne was hurt the whole time. I always thought he was the best goalie in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Weber is a beast on D. Forsberg trade. Has to be one of the great steals of the decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Industrious1 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Always nice to see some impressive attendance figures from our southern market cousins.Keep it up and soon you may qualify for the honor of subsidizing the rest of the league just like the other financially viable franchises!

Patrick Kane Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Emergence of Forsberg and addition of Neal and Ribeiro have been huge. Healthy Rinne helps too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William_Clarkson Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 If they can pull a #1C out of their ass, oh boy. Flip Jones for one. He's great, but their defensive core is good enough without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
