I wouldnt mind seeing hockey back in winnipeg, but am I the only one who would rater see Seattle with a team first? I think that is a market underserved by sports with pretty good grassroots hockey. Growing up in Vancouver we played a fair amount of tournaments in Seattle and there were no shortage of teams. If Butthead wants to grow the game south of the border, I dont know why Seattle hasnt been a market eyed before, it seems like a natural fit.

I guess the key-arena/sonics debacle might have put some people off though.
