Probably because of inflation and people not having the disposable income to attend games.

Ive been saying for years that all these seasons of soulless teams from the southern US states ruin the sport. Nobody wants to see teams from North Carolina, Florida, Texas, etc win the title.

It's because of mass immigration. CBC ended Hockey Night in Canada after 75 years on air, almost 100 if you go back to the original radio broadcasts, and put on cricket in its former timeslot. There was also no fanfare in media about it ending--something kids grew up watching with their parents, grandparents, and even great grandparents wasn't even given a 5 minute spot on the news to mention it let alone celebrate its cultural impact--and the main news item about it was lamenting how the Jeet language version was gone.

>Make cost of living unaffordable for many, make hyperinflation grow, increase the wealth gap for the K-shaped economy to form, increase prices dramatically for all aspects of the game including ticket, beer, parking
>WTF why is no one paying $400 to come see the game also airing on their tv

the games in the article are
>winnipeg vs chicago
>utah vs edmonton
>calgary/toronto/la vs vegasthe only one that's notable is toronto vs vegas, it's probably more an exchange rate and trump thing
32 teams and an 83 game season is too much for anyone to care about, but it's good for tv and gambling deals

I dont even recognize the game anymore. They got rid of fighting and everybody just wants a trade to the best team in the league. That usa-canada game was like the only time i felt like the players actually cared if they won or lost. NHL really overplayed their hand with meme southern westward expansion and the league is just watered down with markets that dont care. The hurricanes owner put his wife and 5 kids names on the lord stanley cup, its just a bunch of gay cucks now but to be fair thats kinda the direction every sport is going

I can't even watch a game if i wanted to. Augmented ads for midwits on every broadcast. All the canadian broadcasters (lmao j/k we are only allowed 1) try to model themselves after ESPN which results is women talking.I can save hockey in Canada easily. NCAA already gave us the chance to free ourselves from the NHL. We just need the balls to do it.

Gee, watching athletes get more ridiculous salaries and team values explode for billionaires to get richer while they make tickets concessions and parking more expensive, new stadiums funded by the public who get no benefits from it, ever more expensive and numerous streaming sites needed to watch games, and endless commercials for gambling AI pharmaceuticals and other bullshit spammed into your brain while society gets worse and worse for us normal people. Yeah I wonder why sports are falling off. Sports used to be a distraction from our boring miserable lives and now it’s getting less and less worth watching
