My bad, I misread that. But if you're going off of that poll, the NBA has no business coming back to Seattle either.
Hockey has a history in Seattle. There are thousands of people that go up to the Canucks games, as well as there being lots of people playing the game around here. Hockey will be great in Seattle.
You live here, do you play in one of the local leagues or go to any of the WHL games?
