Raw Charge, a Tampa Bay Lightning community

Good post by the Rat Trick with Worrell and his take on the Thrashers becoming the Jets.

Timmy at BWA - SBN's Atlanta Thrashers community - has a brilliant idea...vote accordingly.

So, I'm no Bettman apologist -- and I miss the Whalers about as much as a neutral can. But I do have a soft spot for the "non-traditional market" fan. I just watched the Canes win before yet another electric, rocking crowd at the [random bank corp.] Center, and I'm thinking: "Oh yeah, right, hockey just can never work in the South. If you don't grow up with the game, you can't get into it. Damn Bettman." Uh huh. No idea how to explain this sort of thing, though.
