Good, its about frickin time that you American fans down south are stripped of your NHL franchises and they are brought into markets where they are appreciated. Nashville is just the starting point, within the next five to ten years the Florida Panthers, Atlanta Thrashers and Carolina Hurricanes will all be moved to places where they are appreciated. I'm not a huge hockey fan, but being a Canadian and seeing these teams play in empty arenas in stupid hockey markets is very irritating. Places like Milwaukee and Hartford which are cities where hockey could survive in the US are not given a chance but proven failures such as Atlanta are...Garry Bettman is an idiot! In a few years I hope I'm watching the Hamilton Predators playing at Copps Collesium! Sorry Nashville, you guys in all liklihood will lose your team to a city who will appreciate NHL hockey.
