In canada at least when baseball when on strike the skydome and blue jays have never recovered the fan base. what was once a sold out stadium with 50k fans nearly every game, now barely you can see 15k and thats on a free night or 1$ tickets.
alot of people are upset here that the season was cancelled and took the joy away. many went to the minor leagues and found more dedication and heart (something that is missed in the NHL). going to be some time before anyone would buy a ticket to the game again. In the usa, hockey has no where near the fan base as in canada. Most didnt even realize it was cancelled.
