NorthStar74 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 keep the flames out of British Columbia!!!!!!i know those in Manitoba are big Moose fans and many have grown into Canucks fans, but if the Baby Flames MUST move, send Manitoba to Abbotsford (or even better Seattle), and move the baby flames to Winnepeg (or better yet move Phoenix back!)so..my proposal...1. Quad City Flames move to Phoenix. Become the Phoenix Flames.2. Phoenix Coyotes move to Winnepeg. Become Manitoba Moose. Or Winnepeg Jets.3. Canucks AHL affiliate moves to Seattle, WA. Becomes the Seattle Metropolitans.4. Party.Ya gotta be joking.... no way in hell will we let our AHL Moose go.. ehh... rather let the Moose stay here...would you trade your jaffray-laden AHL moose for your NHL Manitoba Moose (former Phoenix Coyotes)???i think you would. i would.I dunno, man... but who would seriously buy and move the Coyotes back to Winnipeg?!?!?! I'll be satisfied with the AHL Moose for now unless something dramatic happen!!

Sodboy13 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 who would seriously buy and move the Coyotes back to Winnipeg?!?!?!Anyone interested in spending $200M for the team, $800M to break the Glendale lease, and another $300M to expand MTS Centre, all for the privilege of losing $20M-50M annually.So, who's first in line?

Sodboy13 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Let it be noted that a Canadian who is staunchly against the NHL footprint going south of the Mason-Dixon Line feels that $1.1 Billion is a fair price for the Phoenix Coyotes.

I really think it would be a good idea to get AHL or ECHL hockey here. I know my Blue Jackets have been trying to at least get the Indy hockey fans with schedules at the Ice games, but I'd love to see the Central Indiana Blue Jackets. I already drew up some logos. A us flag in the "C" shape, and an I where the star is with the Indiana torch in the middle . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow now that is something.. but I have to think what the NHL was doing expanding to the South, that had to go with the risk of getting more fans involved or getting bombed out completely....

Anyways, what does it matter to only have a 16,000 seat arena if the team you're moving there doesn't draw that much, so you aren't guaranteed to lose money.

Seadragon76 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Well, that ends that dream so all of those who want the Jets back can just stop now and go back to reality.Personally, if you ask me, the Flames should of never left Omaha. They could of gotten a better deal playing in the Qwest Center and sharing it with Creighton and UNO Hockey then being the main tenant of the older Civic Auditorium.
