^like what?

what other categories would winnipeg do worse than phoenix, nashville, miami, atlanta, the islanders?

as for the luxury suites: the MTS centre has two double (party) suites that could be made into regular ones if they wanted, so they really have 50...and as i mentioned before, this is the one part of the arena that could be added to....and likely will be even without the NHL....most arenas in the NHL have 70 or so luxury suites....MTS could be the same with easy modification....i know for a fact that it has already been explored...ive seen the drawings.



FYI: gate reciepts int he NHL are closer to 50%....from the levitt report in 2003.

Gate receipts $997 million
Broadcasting and new media $449 million
In-arena revenues $415 million
Other hockey revenues $85 million
Total revenues $1,996 million
