The San Jose Sharks experienced one of their worst seasons in recent memory, failing to reach the postseason for the first time since the 2002-03 season. With that, the Sharks experienced an expected decline in season ticket renewals for the upcoming 2015-16 season.
According to a report from Curtis Pashelka of the San Jose Mercury News, John Tortora, chief operating officer of Sharks Sports & Entertainment, said the Sharks season ticket renewal rate should check in around 85 percent for the 2015-16 season.
For reference, the San Jose Sharks historically have fallen around a 92-93 percent renewal rate according to Tortora when they’ve advanced out of the first round of the playoffs.
