August 19, 20213 yr comment_515180 If we learned anything from the Jets/TNSE purchase of Atlanta, it's that the NHL has got a few options ready to roll that have been biding their time for awhile now. Really curious to know who all might have had pitches ready over the last 10 years or so.....
August 19, 20213 yr comment_515181 Expansion dollars is what the league wants, Bettman come hell or high water wants his baby to succeed in Arizona, sooner than later they will add another team on the West (Houston) which will have a natural rivalry with the Stars and if Quebec can pony up the cash one in the East for a blood bath rivalry with the Canadiens

August 20, 20213 yr comment_515435 Yes. New phone likes to auto correct everything Good one Phoenix is gonna be their destination or Houston. No chance it's Quebec
August 20, 20213 yr comment_515437 Back to where it all started in Arizona and guaranteed to continue bleeding cash

August 20, 20213 yr comment_515442 Houston does have 2 arenas tho prob more that could work. I almost feel they are the backup plan there. It just makes 2 much sense.. if Arizona leaves Arizona, Houston seems likely... geographical location and central division still where Arizona is this year with us and Dallas Chicago Minnesota St Louis Nashville Colorado Just makes sense to keep them in the same division and the obvious Dallas rivalry I couldn't tell u 2 players cuz just 2 young but loved the Whalers.. dunno why.. the name maybe.. jersey? I dunno.. own retro whalers hats and toques but no way Jacobs in Boston let's that happen. Same with QCity.. no way Montreal or Boston again let's that happen. Also Is it Palidoux? The Quebeccor Corp owner and money? That dude. He's apparently pisssed ppl off in the league. Not ball silly trying to move team to Hamilton blackballed but If Quebeccor wants in they gonna have to pay... Montreal Boston and the entire league Edited August 20, 20213 yr by Goalie

August 23, 20213 yr comment_516556 Ah, the Whalers had Ron Francis, Kevin Dineen, Jeff Sanderson and this sweet logo: They're also too close to the Boston and NY market.

August 23, 20213 yr comment_516561 I honestly think both NY teams and Boston would complain that Hartford is too close to their markets. Believe its about a two hour drive from Hartford to both cities.
