history wouldnt be a problem,they would still keep team records and all that before they moved but im not sure who owns the rights to the Nordiques logo and name so that might be a problem but they could just change that without a problem.The phoenix coyotes,Columbus BlueJackets,Florida Panthers and maybe Minnesota Wild should be relocated. There are plenty of cities in canada that could support a team. Toronto,Vancouver,Halifax,Quebec City,Hamilton,and either Saskatoon or Regina for the midwest. Personally id love to see a team out in Halifax.Great people,huge fan base waiting for a NHL team,already have NHL sized stadium there and there is nothing to do out east besides play hockey and fish lol
oh and if its not obvious already il just say i have put in a lot of time and effort into this topic,even wrote essays in highschool about this topic lol
It's funny you mention Toronto since there (or there was) a group their trying to get another team there. They even make a logo and named the team the "Toronto Legacy".

Anyways I personally don't think the chances are high of another city getting another team. Halifax, any city in Saskatchewan won't get a team I think. There too small to support a NHL team. Hamilton won't, after the Blackberry guy failed to get the Coyotes I think that's dead and besides it would be hard to put a team there, I think the Mable Leafs and Sabres wouldn't like a team there.
As if the Quebec City team (if they get a team) will use the name Nordiques it will all depend. I don't know if Quebec City made a arrangement with the NHL to keep the Nordiques name in Quebec City, I kind of doubt that though since they usually do that if the city plans to go for another franchise within a certain amount of time and with the Nordiques leave in 1995 I think that time has past. So that'll leave a couple of options, either they'll have to somehow get the history of the Nordiques from Colorado, make a deal with Colorado to use the name or just get a totally new one.
yea i know people in toronto were trying to bring another team here lol i used to live in the area where they want to put the new arena.
Hamilton would work,they only have like 60,000 people less living there then Vancouver,if you put a team in Hamilton you would have everyone in the south of Ontario who does not want to into the downtown area of toronto able to go that team then. Halifax would work for sorta the same reason,as long as they dont call it Halifax. The owners can call it the atlantic something so you can get the entire atlantic population together under one team. Most of the hockey fans out there are fans of the maple laughs and im sure they would love to support a team in their neck of the woods as long as the costs for seats are not too high.
either way i think canada should have more teams and i dont want Gary "the Weasel" Bettman as the head of the Nhl. its a canadian sport,dominated by canadians and it should be a canadian who is in charge of the nhl.
But hey I AINT EVEN MAD

Except for AP but hes been injured.

I love Jim Brown for what he did for the city of Cleveland and the Browns franchise as a player but he's kinda liked a 70 some year old spoiled brat. He had a front office consulting or adviser position under the previous regime but Mike Holmgren decided not to keep him around and now Jim Brown can't find anything positive to say about anything to do with the team.

That's a really bold statement.
I could name 10 RB's in the league that are great, and have/will prove it.
and AP isn't even the best RB in the league :/

I mean... nobody really amazes me, you know? Its become like a regular thing to have like 1200-1500 yards rushing in a season now. So one someone does it... its like... whatever.
You're probably just gonna bring up a stat sheet and name off the top 10 rushers by their avg per carry or total yards. And on those list are people like Michael Turner, Willis McGAYhee, and fucking Ryan Matthews. Think about that.
