I've asked this question repeatedly, and have never really gotten much in the way of a response, but what impact exactly does that have on you? The people on your TV will be more excited?
I should add that I understood the appetite for a team in Winnipeg from Flames fans. The restoration of an old rivalry makes sense. I just don't get it when it would be a team moving either to Quebec, where there has never been a rivalry of any type, or Seattle, where there's no guarantees it's all that much better than Phoenix. I'm not sure how those change things for people.
