Before They Turn Pro: Superstar Attendance Effects in the Ontario Hockey League (2011-2019)
Before They Turn Pro: Superstar Attendance Effects in the Ontario Hockey League (2011-2019) Austin Lemieux (0300077748) Major Paper presented to the Department of Economics of the University of Ottawa In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the M.A. Degree Supervisors: Professor Pierre Brochu, Professor Louis-Philippe Morin ECO 6999 Ottawa, Ontario July 20th, 2020 Acknowledgments I would like to thank supervisors Pierre Brochu, and Louis-Philippe Morin for their helpful comments throughout my research. Your guidance and passion helped make this paper both enjoyable to write, and gave me an invaluable learning experience that I truly appreciate. [1] Abstract This paper researches superstar player effects on the announced attendance and the probability of a sellout in the Ontario Hockey League for the 2011-2012 to the 2019-2020 regular seasons. Using a rich panel data set of game-level information, I find superstar players have a significant positive effect on the attendance of regular season games. Superstar players are also found to have an economically significant impact on the probability of a sellout, but this latter result is in most cases statistically insignificant. Finally, the superstar effect for sellouts and attendance are seen to change depending on the definition of a superstar, and also if the superstar plays on the home or away team. [2] 1. INTRODUCTION An intriguing topic in the field of sports economics is the study of attendance demand. Investigating which factors influence fans to attend live sporting events has major implications for sports franchises and leagues, local economies, and also further contributes to our understanding of consumer choice. -

Paul-Joseph Frater Berlin, 21 March 2012 2 The Conservation of Canadian Ice Hockey Arenas – Abstract Frater, Paul-Joseph, 2012. The Conservation of Canadian Ice Hockey Arenas. Master Thesis, Brandenburg University of Technology, Cottbus. (Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Leo Schmidt). The main objective of this study is to initiate scholarly research in the subject of the conservation of Canadian ice hockey arenas, a field which has previously not been undertaken. Too large of an amount of heritage ice hockey arenas in Canada are currently threatened by demolition, abandonment, or alterations that destroy each building's character-defining elements. A primary reason for these irreplaceable losses stems from the non-existence of any overarching heritage policies and practices for the conservation of Canadian hockey arenas. -
