Hanging it in Ford Hall or something instead would have been cool IMO.
Completely agree. This banner does not belong next to Champions.

Garth Brooks is a champion in a different field. I would almost guarantee that more people in Edmonton know who Garth Brooks is than Al Hamilton.

Nickelback should get a banner since they sold so many tickets in Edmonton over the years.
Also let's replace the Gretzky statue with a statue of Garth Brooks
Sure, if Nickelback can sell out 9 shows in 6 days and give back to local charities and have a top 20 grossing tour of all time, then sure give them a banner too.
But I guess I don't have the same religious reverence for a piece of fabric hanging from the roof that others have.
Then you really shouldn't care if there's a banner or not, yet you are arguing for it.
I don't care. A piece of fabric hanging from the rafters doesn't belittle the career of Wayne Gretzky, and it doesn't sully the 1990 Stanley cup win. I just find it silly that people are upset by something so trivial.

Hockey is steeped in tradition, and reverence. Are you really surprised people are prickly over this? I'm not. I'm sure on the Garth Brooks message board, they're less inclined to be upset.
Not really to be honest. Message boards tend to have extreme reactions to little things.
