I wonder if there's any area in Buckhead that they would consider. As well, proximity to a MARTA station would be a very wise move.
Near the Lindberg station would work as that is where the Red and Yellow lines meet. The issue is that most of the people that live in the areas marked above would still have to drive to the MARTA stations and at that point it would be easier to just drive.

Using Alpharetta as a starting point to the Red Line is 10 miles and a 15 minute drive in no traffic.
Using the Mall of GA as a starting point to the Yellow line is almost 25 miles and 30 minute drive in no traffic.


And knowing Atlanta there is zero chance of not hitting traffic doesn't matter what time of day. Due to how poor Marta is I imagine most would rather have the Forsyth location and drive. There is also talk of extending the red line up to Windward if that area comes to fruition a few extra mile extension wouldn't be that big of a deal.

Should open up some first line minutes that Corey Perry can fill.

Oilers are pleased that Derek Ryan cleared waivers earlier today - From 4th line to being a healthy scratch to being waived to the 1st line. Congrats Derek!!

Sid has always been that guy to drive engagement with his bad takes, but as the years go by, it's getting worse. Nobody outside of an Oilers fanboy thinks that the suspension is not warranted (if anything, McDavid is lucky it was only three games).

Jack Michaels taking it pretty hard too. He had tears in his eyes tweeting this for sure


Somebody should inform Jack that the NHL does take retaliation especially late in games very seriously. Rasmus Andersson was suspended four games for an elbow to the head on Patrik Laine one night in Columbus as time expired and I had no problem with it as Rasmus was just an idiot for doing what he did.

Wow you know you are a piece of shit if you are hated in the KHL. Couldn’t remember if why he left was posted but safe to say he will be in Edmonton or Chicago.

Watching the Pens/Kings realizing Trevor Lewis is still in the league. How and why?

I mean, McDavid had a couple of options at least:

a) Slash Garland (even a 2-hander) across the legs - No suspension probably (of course it depends on the severity of the slash).
b) Drop the gloves and either fight or continue grappling with Garland (if no punches thrown, he just gets a roughing minor)

He chose instead to cross-check a guy with his stick in the head. The league would be facing a tremendous amount of criticism if they don't suspend McDavid especially after they gave him a free pass on the chicken wing elbow that concussed Johanssen.

As for the Oilers fans and media fanboys, their reaction is exactly what I thought it would be. They're a special breed up there in Edmonton.
