I would like 2 teams to fold and then the league has a \"dispersal\" draft. Now that would be cool.

For example:Florida and Atlanta fold and the league has a LOTTERY draft and teams pick from a loaded talent pool such as: Kovalchuk, Jokinen, Hossa, Boumeester, Lehtonen, Horton, etc.

J.Banks:Major Jr. meaning CHL?? You were talking about 12 hours from Winnipeg. What about Brandon Wheat Kings? 2 hours. Regina Pats? 6 hours. But I know what you mean about not affecting many teams.

I know the Moose would not be able to keep going if a NHL team was brought back to the peg. I am not sure the city is ready to tell the moose to hit the road. And the Arena would need to be made bigger aswell.

I know I would fly to the peg to see some games..<br><br>Post edited by: Zorro, at: 2007/06/05 10:59
I over looked the CHL... lol my mistake... either way, Brandon 2 hours away doesnt affect thier fan base... most poeple wont drive 2 hours to a JR game unless theres a superstar coming to town or they are affiliated with one of the teams (ie, Family)... but u understood what I ment :blush:

Yes the Moose have a loyal Base but I think for an NHL franchise they would move in a second... the Moose were only brought in for the reason of losing the Jets...

and I plan on going to Manitoba to watch the Marlies AHL team play... so I\'d definatly go for Winnipeg-Toronto NHL!!!

If any teams are going to fold, I would think it would be Florida and Columbus, not Atlanta.

My vote goes to Winnipeg, or QC if they can build a new arena. Kitchener Waterloo is too small of a town for an NHL franchise, and counting on people who are within an hour\'s driving distance is no way to build a fan base / corporate support for season tickets.

As a Quebec resident, I think the town of Quebec is indeed not ready. The mayor won her election with a 10 000$ budget... Imagine how she manages funds!! That and Le Colisée is too much old-fashioned for the present NHL.

Winnipeg is ready, but call me crazy, I supported the fact that Montréal & Toronto could each support 2 teams.

Best 2 markets in NHL. Why not? B)
