I know you have to hate the move and try to make it seem like a bad idea at all times but really the travel seems like a pretty petty issue.
wow, you really are a worthless troll aren't you?

i have stated ad nauseum for dinks like you the reason i don't like the move. but apparently all that gets into your tiny brain is that i am bitter because they left qc. get over it. i have no reason to be mad. our local owners ran out of money, thats why the team is gone. while i have said all along i feel cgy folks could have helped us out by keeping their mouths shut, they are not the reason we failed. a fickle local fan base that doesn't really care for hockey is why the team failed. the reason i bring up travel, as i have stated a million times, is that when we got the chance to talk to players about travel, they often commented on how rough it was. heck, someone that wrote about travel a lot is mitch love that plays for houston and played in the whl. so apparently he thinks travel is a significant issue. and as i have contended so many times, that extra travel will wear on players causing them to play below their potential and not be at their best for games. but all i ever get back is some lame excuse about how they aren't tough enough and this will get them ready for the nhl. (even though the nhl charters jets everywhere and rarely even plays back to back games)

you go ahead and keep holding your uninformed ignorant opinions about why i post. it's working out real well for you. its losers like you that make me happy calgary is out of the playoffs.
