Buy season tickets. Besides that, I'm not sure there is anything you can do. Unfortunately, it is the fans who always seem to be left out in the cold. Players find work. Coaches find work.
GMs find work.
But fans are left without a team. Keep your fingers crossed that the salaries don't continue escalating. You couldn't get Blake or Hatcher for that package even if you were the best bank robber or con artist in the history of the world. I don't think Pittsburgh has anybody except Jagr who could get either one of those players in a trade. You have to remember Hatcher and Blake are MVPs on their team.
