Coyotes back to Winnipeg
Manitoba Moose to Victoria (natural rival for Abbotsford) in the AHL

It makes too much sense which is exactly why it won't happen...

I think the biggest worry in Winnipeg is that the city lacks the corporate sponsorship necessary to field a professional team

I wonder about that as well...David Thomson has a boatload of cash, but aside from Great-West Life and I guess MTS, what other big companies call Winnipeg home?

Considering where you live, try this for retro. Though I think it's coming back too:

I may be in the minority, but I really like those caps...

I get twitchy when I see one of those damn things OR when I hear that fucking Pointer sisters song.

That would also end any WHL expansion to Victoria rumors which have been going on for far too long now. That would be nice. IMO the WHL already has enough teams.

If this were to happen, I would guess that the Jets would be part of the NW and they would put the Avs in the Pac. That would mean the Wild would be in a division with 4 Canadian teams.
