This thread is lols.
For the record, neither city will get an NHL team any time soon (sure, maybe in a couple decades as has been mentioned), and to be honest, they shouldn't even be striving for one right now (I'd love to see the CFL in both).
Perhaps Halifax could have a decent AHL rivalry with St. John's.
As for the city-vs-city bs, if this weren't a relatively undiscovered local section, those posts wouldn't have lasted 10 minutes. I haven't spent much time in Halifax, but the few hours I have spent walking around the core have led me to believe it kicks ass, and would be my favourite city in Atlantic Canada. I have spent a couple months working in Saskatoon, and it's one of my favourite small cities in the country - great summertime weather (and for cold freaks like myself, awesome winter weather too) and far more outdoor recreation opportunities than people realize. Broadway is one of the best streets I've seen in a city that size. I'll admit, before I spent the better part of three winters in Saskatchewan I too made fun of the province, but now that I'm more familiar with it, I find myself defending the province all the time.
