I think the canadian dollar is a huge part of the revenue increase
the loonie is pretty much at par with the us greenback and pre-lockout it was around 67 cents .The canadian teams can afford to keep their star players wheras pre lockout they were always cashed in for youth which was difficult for the canadian teams fans to accept
I\'m curious to see how the price of oil effects the fans discretionary income as well as nhl teams budgets (chartered flights etc..cost $$ )
it won\'t affect the team\'s travel too much in my opinion... (it seems to make sense that the league would give teams some sort of travel stipend... I mean think about it... if teams had to pay their own travel, vancouver would have a hell of a lot more to pay each season than say Philidephia).
It will be interesting to see what happens with the coming season though... I wonder if more people will stay home as gas prices continue to rise and the economy continues to sag...
teams do have to pay for their own travel.
wow that\'s horse shit... I can\'t believe that the western conference teams have to pay travel expenses out of their own pockets when they probably travel hundreds of thousands of miles more every year than the eastern conference teams.
