Many, but not all, NJ Devils fans are fair weather fans. The seats will get filled if they are having an exciting season. With the start the team got, and the prices of seats in the new arena, its tough to convince people (in this economy and state) to spend that kind of money seeing a mediocre team. You can look at the stats and see them in 6th place, separate from the top teams by only a win or three, yet they don't give off that spark of excitement.
I'll continue to watch the team through thick and thin, on FSN and MSG, without traveling to the Prudential Center. Someday I'll get there, but I'll likely travel without my family - way too expensive.
