Sports is about rivalries, and I'll never feel any sense of rivalry with some team in Kansas City or Seattle. The Coyotes have been in Phoenix for almost twenty years now and it's hard to get up hate for them when nobody in Phoenix cares about them.

Well said.
I am the biggest supporter of the return of the Nordiques. I would love to see "The battle of Quebec" again. These rivalries were as intense as the BOA. It seems like Quebec could be granted a franchise by 2015-16.
