What happened to Vatanen?  I thought he was one of their top guys but then I looked last week and he was third pairing.  And now he is in Jersey, I guess.

For 600m they can blow Key Arena to bits rather then renovate.

Really would just be unfathomable if Calgary ended up in Seattle while so many bible belt teams are struggling with attendance.

Ya I see that as a worst case ontario for sure.   If this were to happen, I'd be pretty stunned.

Would just mean Calgary would get another and that the owners would be better off moving to Seattle too.

Seriously...?

Kuznetsov went to fist-bump Connolly who scored a goal. Connolly wasn't paying attention, so Kuznetsov fist-bumped himself.

Forbes has released its annual valuation of NHL teams.

Jets come in at #26 with an estimated value of $375M.  Estimated revenue of $119M and $10M in operating income.

Funny how Vegas paid $500M for their franchise, yet half the teams in the league are valued at less than that.

No it would not 'just' mean that a team would move to Calgary...  ??

Good list.  Of course it doesnt paint the entire picture.  Jets have a ceiling as an NHL franchise but as part of True North, its the economic driver of a lot more revenue than that.  I do enjoy seeing the Jets make money though given how many said it would be impossible.
