The Panthers haven't won any of their first three games and have not been successful at the gate yet this season. Their announced crowd of 7,311 on Monday night was not only a franchise all-time worst, smashing the previous low of 10,063, it was also the smallest attendance figure for an NHL game in almost three years.

"I don't pay attention to that stuff when I'm playing," Panthers veteran goalie Robert Luongo said. "I try to focus on my job. If we want to get some people in the stands, we're going to have to start winning some hockey games."

Through two home dates, the Panthers have drawn 18,730 fans total. Eight teams averaged more than that for home games last season, and entering Tuesday, the Panthers' two home games to date had drawn the two smallest crowds in the league this season.

With the larger television deal, the NHL is relying less on ticket revenue as an overall piece of revenue pie. However, if the Panthers average less than 10,000/game this season, its time to start evaluating if there truly is any greater potential/equity in the southern Florida market.
