   I still hold that given an NHL team, Portland Oregonians would turn out in force… they’ve been searching for that elusive second major league team for years, and I’d rather see them get hockey than baseball.

   KC Penguins…how my heart was saddened when that didn’t materialize. Yes, I hate Pittsburgh and their fans bad enough to wish that upon them.

   On Hockey Central at Noon on the Fan590, NHLPA Director Paul Kelly is against moving to KC, LV, and another city I can’t think of. He is in favor of relocating a franchise in Canada. A report came out that the 6 Canadian franchises generate 1/3 of the leagues hockey revenue. Here is a link to the story, http://www.thestar.com/Sports/Hockey/article/433906

   You know, as much as I thought I would want them to move out because I HATE the Penguins. I REALLY wanted them to stay. You need to have an archnemesis. There is too much history between the teams and hatred between the fans to lose out on. When Ovie came to us and Cindy went to Pittsburgh, it’s like the hockey gods were saying, ‘Let’s throw a match on this gasoline’.
   I was devastated when the Penguins came back from 2 game deficits in 92, 95, and 96 and I was ELATED when we squashed #66’s Cup hopes in 1994. I loved when Schoenfeld barked at the Pittsburgh bench and crowd in 1996 and I was in the Capital Centre when Petr Nedved broke our hearts the game before.
   I hate the Penguins as much as every other Caps fanatic, but they shouldn’t be taken somewhere else. They have a good fan base (as much as we hate them) and no one else comes close to being as big of a rival.

   Maybe so, but the NHL set a bad precedent by determining that the team not go to the person(s) offering the highest purchase price.
