We've got 9,300 (season ticket holders) here and we were at 6,000 when I was hired, ... I believe this is a great hockey market. I remember when you couldn't get a ticket for games here. Then we gave people reasons not to come, and they stopped coming.
I'm not interested in adding names, I'm interested in adding hockey players. I signed Teemu because I think he makes us a better hockey team. We're anticipating he'll play on our top six. Certainly, I'm counting on him for top-six ice time and the power play.
