Six games is still a pittance. The idea that less televised games mean more attend worked in the 1950's and 1960's but with 200+ TV channels now, the Internet and all the other things distracting (potential) fans, you need to make yourself available in every medium possible. Wirtz doesn't grasp that.
The Blackhawks should be one of the marquee franchises of the NHL and instead they are an afterthought. An also-ran.
