Would a different form of hockey work for some area's where the NHL is struggling?

I dont think so i mean if your not going to enjoy the greatness of the best way to play hockey then its simply not going to catch on.. UNLESS MAYBE you were to have foxy hockey with good looking girls in skimpy out fits playing... i dont care if it would most likely looks like a pee wee turnement with players falling every time they tried to move.. that might actually sell more tickets..
