just got back from 'the forks' after the big press conference... the place went WILD!!! 

now the debate begins over what to call the team... i gotta go with jets. 

thoughts??

The NHL Playoffs start tomorrow - do you care? If so, who are you cheering for and why?

For the past several years, many here in the west have come to the conclusion that there is something wrong in how the NHL conferences are dispersed. Or that there is the inevitable and unsolvable problem of social-geography - it is easier to travel in the east coast because of the lack of distance compared to the western conference (ie. how many teams are between Montreal and Washington, D.C. compared to the huge geographical difference between Vancouver, Edmonton, and Dallas, etc.).
