The Observer Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 And it looks like Atlanta to Winnipeg is official now. I wonder how they'll make out... Gary Bettman seems very against this idea. Was always against Canada and the NHL for some reason... <_< At least it went through anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Oh, I know why he was against it; the potential in the american markets is much bigger, it makes the NHL much more money. But bad ownership made it fail, he had no choice. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Is_Great Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Put another team in ATL asap, that way we'll get more canadian teams. \:D/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Wow, what an odd game. 19 seconds left and they score...

Blyaunte Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 And it looks like Atlanta to Winnipeg is official now. I wonder how they'll make out... Hopefully they should fare much better this time around. The question is, what will they call it? Jets? Falcons? Roughriders? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I hope they go with Jets again tbh, but apparently the picture of the queen won't be back :( "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blyaunte Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I hope they go with Jets again tbh, but apparently the picture of the queen won't be back :( She never paid for the seat anyways ... :lol: Jets is my choice, but I think the Coyotes organization actually still owns that name. <_< "Falcons" has some history to it, which is cool, too. But Jets is a first choice as far as I care. I can see why the Coyotes want to keep the name "Jets" from being used, though. It's their "team history", as it were, not the City of Winnipeg's.

obfuscator Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Actually the nhl owns the name, so they could release it. I don't think it's that much of a long shot tbh, but I guess we'll see. They probably won't announce a name until the governors actually ratify the move; which isn't until June 21st(assuming they do) "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd get a little "sticky" though to call the team the "Jets". I mean, really -- where would you hang Hawerchuk's jersey, for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamtaro Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Thomas had so many great saves so far. The game could very well be even right now if it weren't for him. Also, Rome's hit was totally uncalled for. I hope Horton will be okay. Player since 2004.

obfuscator Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I don't see what was wrong with that hit at all other than it was late. It was north south, not charging.... Once again they're punishing for result, not action. But that game was ridiculous.

All_Is_Great Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 The fact that it's late... Also a hit to the head. But yah did you see Lucic taunting Burrows LMFAO, imo its difference than Lapierre on Bergeron b/c Burrows is the one who bit Bergeron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Yeah that taunting was a bit much, especially given how CJ called it "classless" and said bruins players "would never do that". Still at least he came out after the game saying it wasn't acceptable.

obfuscator Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Vancouver has had a blowout game every series now..

Last nights game, yeah, that was a blowout.
