Je l'avais mentionné il y avait à peu prés 1 mois. L'organisation des Rangers avait déjà préparé les partisans au travers de 2 journalistes qui suivent l'équipe que c'était pour être une reconstruction.
Ce que les Rangers font, c'est la même chose que Shanahan et les Leafs en 2015:
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/leafs-not-raising-ticket-prices-as-shanahan-says-rebuild-will-require-patience/article23276459/"There are no shortcuts to building a team the right way," Shanahan writes in the letter. "It will require patience and a long-term view, but it is important for you to know that the process will be well worth it when we get there."
In line with that, the Leafs will not raise ticket prices for next season.
On the business side, Shanahan was "intimately involved" with the decision to keep ticket prices the same, according to Hopkinson, who said ownership was "extremely supportive" of the decision. Hopkinson said it follows other fan-friendly initiatives that have gone into place in the past year, like giving season-ticket holders the opportunity to opt out of two pre-season games and holding a September fan fest.
"There's a bunch of things we're doing to really demonstrate to our fans in deeds not just words that we do not take their loyalty for granted, that we appreciate their support," Hopkinson said.
Très différent de l'approche de notre vendeur de bière qui continue de monter les prix des billets à chaque saison, et même de 25% pour certains. Et c'est sans compter pour ceux qui veulent des vrais billets... imprimés.
