Horsepucky. The Expos ranked 4th, 4th, 3rd, 3rd and 2nd in the league from
1979 to 1983. When the team started letting its players from that era go, the
crowds stopped going. The Expos were drawing well over the league average
during those years and if you choose to believe your heart and not reality
then so be it. The hockey team had nothing to do with them dropping from
27,000+ fans and it's only an excuse used by management and those who choose
to live management's lie.
