However, I do find it unusual that a fan like yourself doesn't seem to empathize with myself and others (based only from what ive read). for reasons that i won't bother to speculate, you seem pretty disconnected from the majority of hard-core NHL fans as it pertains to this topic. although its easy to rationalize the NHL has no place in winnipeg because it is a business, it doesn't mean that it should be acceptable!
jericholic19 said:maybe canadian doctors ought to rationalize their service purely as business as well. they should use their canadian-based education to make a better living in the USA at a time when my country is suffering from a shortage of docs. who cares what's fair for canadians. forget about being a doc who likes to help people. their priority should be focused on making money!!!! LOTS OF MONEY!
arnie said:Unfair? Grow up. Winnipeg doesn't have the economic base for aan NHL team and it is a terrible road draw in the US.
ColinM said:I've never understood how somebody could make a case for the NHL in Winnipeg when they only built the MTS Center with 15 000 seats. Even if they sold out every game they would still be in the bottom third of the league attendance had they played in the NHL last season.

If they truely were an NHL market they would have built their rink at something close to NHL capacity.
I'd like to see an NHL team in Winnipeg simply because it is a Canadian city, but not if it is going to be a constant economic struggle who would make the rest of the Canadian NHL teams look bad by association. Sure there are some passionate fans in Winnipeg as there are in Halifax or Saskatchewan. However even 20 years ago those weren't NHL markets.
