Doubtful, anyone would admit to retraction of their franchise (Nashville, Phoenix, Florida or whoever), maybe I cannot comprehend being a fan of a team who never sells out, never wins, or overspends and underacheives consistently.
It is sad to see Nashville and Anahiem with empty arenas when they are nearly on top of their conference all season.
How does that work? the expansion/diluted discussion is about mediocrity and mediocre teams, which quite honestly are in the Wings divison.
I love the NHL, but i am becoming more of a fan of the OHL and World tournaments, etc. over recent years
