    Along with that, maybe make tickets cheaper for kids? The Jays, Rock, and Steelheads do that.

    I agree with that. Although you can't group in the Steelheads with the Jays and Rock because 2 of the 3 are professional teams. The Steelheads can't even sell out their games when they just had an elite team filled with 9 future NHL players 2 of which were 1st round picks.

    The Steelheads had 4,000 + for their SF and Final games of the OHL playoffs, and that's with increased ticket prices which go up for every round. They also lost Jersey draft pick Mike McLeod on a major slashing penalty in Game 4 of the Finals and exhibited no offense after that. Crowds of almost 4,500 are quite good for the OHL Final anywhere, and that's what the y had at the Hershey Centre with the little publicity the team gets. Mississauga does not have TV, Radio station, nor a daily paper, so the team regardless of how many draft picks they may have is always at the end of sports pages and sports broadcasts...hmmm, sounds like Argos at the Pro level. Remember MLSE also does not promote Jr hockey at all, haven't for years especially since the Marlies took up shop in the AHL playing at the Ricoh Coliseum. They'd rather promote Raptors 905 in Mississauga than promote the Steelheads, and do so.
