   Lest I be accused of not having a sense of humor again, I gotta say I think its sad when a city loses its team. Unless it was pittsburgh losing the penguins. That would be funny.

   Sorry I couldn’t vote…I grew up in Washington so I knew who they are. I would have voted if there was a selection of “who the hell cares, it’s not hockey”.

   I say stick a hockey team there, but how about a 4th option: It’s almost always a sad day when a sports team leaves when it still receives fan support.
   This is just a crying shame. But at least the city got to keep the colors and logo. So I’m sure Seattle will have a new team soon. Maybe this will give the city the impetus to renovate Key Arena, which may make is hockey-suitable as well.
   I’ve always wondered why Seattle doesn’t have a team. It would be a good fit. Put a team in Seattle, and another in, say, Hamilton. One in the east, one in the West. Done.
   (Worry about Vegas and KC in the years ahead. Not now.)

   I believe even the minor hockey league teams don’t do well in Seattle so probably not meant to be. They’ll probably get an expansion if the go through with the 300 mil in renovations. From what I’ve read the arena is lacking in ameneties for what its worth (apologies for the sp i’m tired, heh).

    @ usiel: the Seattle Thunderbirds aren’t that hot. But the nearby Everett Silvertips are pretty legit. They made it to the first round of playoffs, to be beaten by my Chiefs.
    I would love to see an NHL team in Seattle. There were some rumblings of making it happen, (Kurtenblog had a post about it I should find the link). But Seattle is a bit tired of building stadiums.
