A view from KC

Post by KCHockey »

I'm going to follow this situation very closely and post views from KC to:

www.kchockeybuzz.blogspot.com

Just a little disclaimer -- I am a huge Penguins fan. My father is a Pittsburgh native. He says things like "yunz" and "gum-bands".

I want the Pens to stay in Pittsburgh, but I also want KC to get a hockey team for a snazzy new arena.

Does you dad tell you to stop bothering unhappy Penguin fans who don't want to think about the team playing anywhere other than here. At least for one last season anyways. If not he should.

Aye, general rule of thumb:

Pittsburgh fans are sore losers and we don't like admitting it.

I wouldnt be so confident about your chances KC.

New York has 3 teams
Los Angeles has 2
Why does Toronto have only 1?

If this team leaves, its going to Toronto. Whoever buys it will make a ton of money there with 87 in the linep, and will do so for years, unlike any of these U.S. "fad" markets. Hockey will fail in KC (again) just like it will in any NFL dominated city.

I'm not confident of KC's chances.

I'm simply providing a way for KC fans to follow the process. Perhaps the hockey team we get should be an AHL team.

Re: your thoughts about Toronto.

I agree with you 100%. Toronto should have two teams.
