It's kinda weird that the NHL is constantly chasing the U.S. T.V. market that will never be there.. Half the country doesn't have ice... They might as well try and put a team in Mexico or Brazil..
It's hilarious,.. I hope you guys and Winnipeg get your teams back.. I wonder how many Hod member that live in the southern states watch or care about hockey..
I was the worst skater. Couldn't brake from the left and had problems skating backwards, so they put me in the goal.
Every sport I played, they put me in the goal because I had no cardio and sucked on plays. Soccer, handball, waterpolo,...and I became good at it.
Stretching it, I can see a connexion between a goalie and a drummer: the guy in the back holding it all together...with tons of equipment to carry.
Yeah, some US hockey teams are so desperate to get people in that they offer packages like $40 for a family of four with parking, hot dogs, drinks and souvenirs.
Here you're lucky if you can get a $200 ticket for a Montreal Canadians game.

I totally lost interest in hockey when the Nordiques left for the US, to the point I don't even know all the new teams and I'm not aware of all the problems.
Now that there's hope of them coming back, I only look forward to the revival of that Montreal-Quebec rivalry.
