THE DRIVE FOR FIVE

Here's the initial draft of an outline of steps that could be taken at the grassroots level to obtain five thousand more season ticket holders for the Hurricanes. I would greatly appreciate any ideas people have in this regard. As I look at the young, talented players at Carolina and at Albany/Charlotte, it seems insane to be in a position to be unable to afford them due to a lack of fan support for the team. Also, from my standpoint, I much prefer watching the Hurricanes lay their opponents to waste rather than watching them struggle to make the playoffs. The 2005-2006 Stanley Cup Run was magic. I really want to experience that again with the Hurricanes -- and the sooner the better.
