Gary Bettman is most known for his impulsive need to grow the NHL in the southern U.S. states.
His most recent idea was to have the All Star Game in Sunrise this year, which was supposed to highlight the success of the game's Florida markets. Unfortunately, it just highlighted the lack of interest.
Most notably, some fans shared the amount of empty seats at Friday's Skills Competition.
This season the Panthers attendance has been near the bottom of the league (again) at an average of 82%.
According to reports, fans were even moved down to the lower bowl to fill sections, leading to the upper decks to remain empty.
So, what's the cause? A lack of interest in the NHL All Star Game, or hockey in Florida?
