One thought on “Now That Winnipeg Is Back In The NHL …”
As lovable as the Whale was, Hartford was doomed for a lot of years. They had notoriously poor attendance and shared a market with Boston. After the NHL goes back to Quebec City (which seems inevitable) I don’t see them re-entering any abandoned markets. Too bad there is no arena in Seattle…. the NHL needs more teams in the West, to help with scheduling and realign some “West” teams into the East.
