@predsfan2010 Look at the date you homo. and eww. Why are you fantasizing about guys with semen on their face? What are you a homo? on 09-10 the Preds had an attendace in the 14,000-15,000 range, and ranked 5th last in the NHL. Consider that fuckface, because that is when I made the video.
wooooooooow empty crowd in nashville ???? ur sir are a dumb ass. nashville is and has been considered by the NHL OFFICES the most successfull small market team and we have a 98% per game attendence rate
St louis Dallas, Tampa and Carolina?? That would never work because within the next 5-7 years Dallas and Carolina wont exist. Put St Louis in with Chicago. Carolina and Tampa with the northeast and Dallas throw them out West.
@11in11topthat St. Louis can't be moved, they actually aren't in trouble, and Carolina and Tampa aren't problems either. Dallas is a huge concern, they gotta go. Move them asap. The teams that need to move now are Dallas, Islanders, and Anaheim. Those are the three that gotta go.
@TheHockeyKid811 Sorry for being a dick, I had a lot of steam in me. 2000 and 2001 were both the Devils. They won in 2000, and lost to the Avs in game 7 2001.
Why are people so insistent on moving the Predators. They sell out all of their games and have a huge fan base. In case the maker of this video hasn't noticed, Dallas hasnt come close to selling out a game all season.
@TheEnchantedTikiRoom 21st in the league in attendance avg. at 16,587. That is not good. But realize this video is dated. If I made this video today, teams that I would say need to move would be Florida, Islanders (NJ stays hoping that isles fans switch), NJ if that doesn't work out, Phoenix, Anaheim, Dallas, Columbus, and possibly fold some of them if its that bad. Most people don't know this, but Phoenix isn't going anywhere until Quebec in 2015. Bettman already made an agreement with QC on it
@flyersfan345 Phoenix isn't going anywhere period. Everyone is comparing Atlanta with Phoenix but you can't. The Jamison group has brought in Jeremy Roenick into the organization. The Coyotes will have an owner by the offseason of this year. And as for this claim of Bettman making an agreement on QC, proof.

mant teams moved from canada to the US back in the day because of 2 things: gay bettmans stupidity and the exchange rate for US/ Canadian dollars. now that Canadian dollars are worth more its easier for a city of 300k to have an NHL team in canada then for a huge city like atlanta with a population over 5million ppl. i think losing a team wouldnt be that bad and why not a northern maine team or a Vermont or New Hampshire team? they all support college hockey or bring back the Hartford Whalers
@pat442389 northern Maine? The population is WAAY too small, and in New Hampshire and Vermont they already support Boston and college hockey. there is no point anyway. The populations are big enough to support college, but not NHL.
@flyersfan345 Atlanta is like 3rd behind LA and New York for population and they couldnt fully support a team, but Winnipeg and Calgary can. Id rather put money on a traditional hockey market like Vermont New Hampshire or Conn. even Maine then a bigger city with no history like Seattle. New England loves hockey they can support 2 teams.
@pat442389 New England has 4 teams already. I think that is enough. I mean, maybe a team in Quebec could cover more of New England. but they are already covered or the most part.
Fair enough, I understand that this is a dated video (to what happende to the Thrashers last year). So...I think Cayotes to Quebec, and NYI to brooklyn. New franchises would be too much (dilute the talent). Thats all I can predict for now.
I also think people should consider moving the Hurricanes to maybe Hartford. I think it would be cool to have the Whalers back and I also see that becoming a large rivalry with the Bruins. As seen tonight...it seems the Canes are a team that has the Bruins Number lol. (Part 2)
If i was the commish for starters I'd move Florida to Seattle no question. I think they deserve a hockey team and the northwest is a great fan base. I'd move the Coyotes to Quebec city again I agree with that too. Canada can support another hockey team there. Move the Preds to (this one may shock you) Kansas City. I think KC has a large enough not just hockey fan base but large sports fan base to support them PLUS Arrowhead for the Chiefs...loudest stadium in the NFL (Part 1)
@prototypedenNIS Thank you for not being an asshole to me. My views and opinions have changed since I made this, and they are about the same as yours.
@sparkychewbarky thank you! Someone who thinks that 6 million people can fill an 18-20 thousand person arena. That is only .033% of the population. That is enough. I think atleast 5-10% would buy tickets.
@jcrossby17 You're saying I don't watch hockey? SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU STUPID PIECE OF CANADIAN BANDWAGON TRASH, YOU PILE OF SHIT! I JUST WATCHED THE FLYERS GAME, RANGERS GAME AND CANUCKS YESTERDAY! I PROBABLY KNOW MORE THAN YOU, YA PIECE OF SHIT. Columbus is shit, and they hardly have a fan base. They aren't in a city big enough to hold a team anyway. Maybe If cleveland let them in but no. Because of that, Ohio doesn't get a team.
hey dumbass 2 things with relocated cities wrong 1 it was KANSAS CITY NOT TOPEKA as well SASKATOON NOT REGINA!!!!!!!! And if you think Hamilton (to close to Buffalo), Indy (no facility could permanently hold a hockey team AND its not popular), Seattle (no facility big enough to hold it permanently), and Nova Scotia (WAY to small) will EVER get an NHL team your a retard. Quebec City (Phoenix most likely) and maybe Hartford (NY Islanders???) will get new teams first.
@dstroyer92 Well, you are a mother fucking piece of shit asshole. The twins suck cock by the way and they'll never go anywhere in the next 10 years. I'll tell you that.
Indy could build a facility stupid fucking faggot. Quebec has a large Canadien fan base. Seatle clould build a facility. Cities build places to get teams. so you are the dumbass YOU FUCKING RETARDED ASSHOLE. THINK FOR A MOMENT, HOW MANY CITIES BUILD BEFORE THE TEAMS COME??? IDK, MAYBE ALL OF THEM?
Indy will NOT build a hockey facility as they already have a very nice arena (home of the Pacers but not suitable for an NHL club) Indy does however have a USHL team (Indiana Ice majority home Capacity - 8200 minority home Bankers Life Fieldhouse Capacity - Appx 14000 while there average attendance is 3381), Quebec i said will get a team (Phoenix) SO READ and Seattle has a CHL Junior team and will not finance a new arena (reason the SuperSonics left) and yes the Twins do suck we all know :)
florida never made it to the playoffs read up next time year of the rat we made it to the stanley cup in the old miami arena just because we have been back in 10 years doesnt mean we never made it
This is dumb...Nashville is an empty crowd? Clearly you have never been to a game here. you shouldn't run your mouth about things you don't know about. Like getting pussy and respect
@flyersfan345 When did Nashville have an empty crowd. Even in the three "bad" season they never played to an empty crowd. Overall attendance is right at 15,000 which is 90% capacity. Bad media and fans opinion is what gave Nashville a bad reputation.
^^ Read it. We ranked 18th in average ticket prices last year and prices have easily increased 5-10% this season.. so we'll probably ranked around 15 this season. Add that to 97% capacity (google: nhl average attendance) and we've had 8 straight sell-outs. Nashville is the model franchise for a southern franchise and if you disagree, you're just ignorant. Research a little more.
@flyersfan345 Nashville has had three bad seasons in 13 years. Here is what I don't get, today watching the Wings/Hawks game the announcers said in the early 80's the Wings actually gave away cars during games to bring in fans. Just 5 years ago the Hawks was averaging under 14,000 pergame. The Bruins/Flyers have had horrible years of attendance. I also don't understand why everyone says the Preds have never won the cup? It tooks the Bruins 39 years, Hawks 49 years and the Nucks have never won it
@Gryfu1 Kansas City or Topeka. Should've noted that I didn't mean the exact city, could be surrounding. I think a team should go there simply because its got a good population, and they're one of the only parts of the area that does, the only one. I think it'd be a good experiment. You have other places you can move them to if the don't make money in like 2, 3 years.
@BobinK100 no st louis is far away from kasnas city. if your going to say kc and st louis are in the same area is like saying that minnesota doesnt need a team because they are close enough to winnipeg or chicago
@flyersfan345 come talk to me when you win music scholarships and you're a music major in university, like me. then maybe i might respect your opinion. until then, have fun with your garage band.
@Underdogbassist Yeah, unlike you I have a plan B. I'm not gonna be a $40,000 year lower class fuck like you. Where are you Pitt Music? or a real music college, Berkelee?
Garage Band? I'm 14, how can a freshman (HS) get a music scholarship to College already? My entire band has talent. I've only been playing since October, and I've already written 3 songs.
@flyersfan345 cool story bro. Judging from the fact that you don't know how to spell berklee correctly, you have alot to learn about the world and business of music, and how everything works. last time i checked, my music professors make alot more than 40,000 a year.
@Underdogbassist You obviously don't take into consideration that it's a typo. Shows your lack of common sense. I actually know a lot about the industry. Sure, I'll admit, I don't know as much as a college professor who is so poor he is living in a fucking ghetto making no money, but still. What exactly are you going at with a music major? a 1 in a 100,000 career?
@flyersfan345 actually it was common sense that brought me to the conclusion that it wasn't a typo, since you're 14 and lacking knowledge. since you're hating on people like me who decided that following your passion isn't as important as money, and music teachers (i have yet to meet one that lives in the ghetto) i'm guessing you're just angry that you'll never have a successful music career. but it's okay, i'll let you believe that money is the most important thing in life. typical american.
@Underdogbassist Music isn't my top priority. It shouldn't be. Because the popular music is all bullshit, and no one with actual talent can go anywhere. Just a pile of shit ghetto douche singing about robbing a bank. Money isn't the most important thing in life either. It's so far up there though, because you can't do shit without it.
If you were to put a team in that part of the country, put one in Kansas city. They have a beautiful fairly new arena there and you have an instant rivalry with st. Louis as well.
I like putting a team in Seattle though; it's way overdue for a team in the northwest.
@jtallon8 whatever, jackass. Think what you want. but the NHL wouldn't make a dime, because this is one of the most prophitable organizations in the league. It's affiliated with NBC, Versus, and Comcast Sportsnet. It's stands as the first priority of all of those networks. Nice try at a fan-related attack, but I truly do not think you can be that stupid.
Gary Bettman is a loser. He is hurting the NHL. If he allowed Balsillie to move Phoenix to Hamilton or London, Atlanta to Winnipeg .. the NHL would be making money. He insists on trying to make the NHL work in US but he needs to realize that he failed and do whats best for the league.
Move Islanders to Seattle, NY has 2 teams, One good (Devils), One bad (Rangers), and one worst in Eastern conferance and second worst in NHL (Behind Blue Jackets). Seattle provides rivalry with Canucks.
Moving out Atlanta I get which it already happened but Florida made to the finals in 1996 and their doing very well this season I may add, Columbus are you shitting me ohio is a hockey state I've lived their hockey is big, IN KANSAS!?!??! they only have a chl who has 2 championships and they happend 2 decades ago and they had a IHL that folded in 2001 they had an NHL that was their for 2 seasons 2!! the CHL is inconsistent with attendance they average 5,000 a year when their arena holds 15,000
your statement saying "hockey makes more money in canada" would be true if the remaining cities had anywhere near the population needed to support a club...
he should move the flyers if he wants all the young teams that will be good soon to move then the flyers should move cuz they r young and if you want a pointless reason like this guy has for all the teams they to good and populated of a franchise
@simonheald You are the dumbest motherfucker I have ever seen, go and look up the flyers attendance, value and revenue. That is the absolute dumbest way to launch an attack.
so ladys put all the cranked up NHL teams Florida,Phoenix,Columbus,Nashville,Anaheim to the AHL and from the AHL some good Teams like Milwaukee,Portland,Seattle,Utah into the NHL besides teams in Hamilton,Quebec,Halifax,Regina,like they did it in the late seventies the oilers,whalers and jets moed from the WHL into the NHL so it worked out pretty good.why not again
So first off I'm from the peg and have season tickets to the jets. I have been to all the games and I can tell it will work for a very long time. But now to this stupid thing. NHL will not work in the Halifax region or around there not big enough population. I would suggest a team in Quebec city and maybe north west Ontario. The fact that you say we should make new teams to go into the NHL is just the worst idea.
@canucks123123 Well Personally, I'd like to have a team in thunder bay, I'm not sure about Halifax, all of these places, I would test out with the AHL before I even mentioned it.
@canucklehead444 Woooow. thats impressive not so long ago ey?hahahahaaaaaa in this time tampa won the cup once and til then thy play pretty damn good hockey.florida panther must be moved away to Quebec City.
Quebec City??? you totally ignore the biggest hickey market that doesn't have a team??? and the city that's is literally in reality the next city that will get an NHL team (if not there will be riots in the streets)
interesting placement...you should have named it...spreading the nhl across the world because your placement just does not make true logical sense. Im not trying to be rude, your explanation for moving teams is because they dont make money anywhere else, but you should be asking yourself...do they make more money where you moved them to? anyone in topeka is going to be making less money than in columbus...simple as that...
@hockeytyler961 You don't move Columbus to Topeka, Topeka would be new. Right next to Topeka, are the Kansas cities, put them there if you want. the two Greater Metropolitan areas together, aren't small. They are adjacent cities, and I honestly, would test these out with the AHL first, but I do think Kansas City/Topeka can make money as a hockey area.
@MrSuperCoolGuy64 Shit I also forgot that there is a suburb of Topeka, you obviously are forgetting that to, I just put teams in the GENERAL AREA that needs one, just picked a city for that. You don't just take a city and say they are a small city and have no suburbs, when there could be a satellite city, and other surrounding ones. There is also more than that, there is more than just the surrounding area, you would have people from three states and surrounding counties.
@MrSuperCoolGuy64 You obviously did research to counter that one, shows that you have no life. I make a couple typo's and you try to rape the shit out of this video for it? Get a life douchebag.
@flyersfan345 You're a Flyers fan and you want to move the American teams to Canada?? You are a complete moron. Canada doesn't need anymore teams. BTW, the Panthers aren't going ANYWHERE baby!!!! #yousuck
@tlaxer341 Not sure about that. I think Hartford failed because NY and Boston, that is like the halfway mark, and they already had loyal fans in the region, so unless one leaves, I think an AHL team does good enough for them. I just think boston and New York have already taken over the area there, but it is a good hockey town.
@flyersfan345 Thats a good point i just think the excitment of a return to Hartford would start alot of buzz in the area and the team would do well. But thats just my opinion.
are you kidding me????? move Nashville to indianapolis??? and because its an "empty crowd"??? you have obviously not seen the attendance numbers of the Bridgestone arena in the past few seasons.
@lojosol you obviously haven't seen the date on this video
If they made money, why would they have $14M in cap space. Don't you think they would probably use their cap space to below $5M if they made enough money to even fill that?
@flyersfan345 The reason they are so far under the cap at this point is because they still have to try to sign Weber and Suter. Right there goes almost 15 million dollars.
Hahahaha a team in Saskatchewan?!? Let alone in dirty ass Regina. LMAO!!! Stoon can't even get enough people out for a blades game when they are first in the league and had Schenn late in the season. #youreafuckingidiot
Season by Season numbers- 15,947=16,123=15,767=15,201=13,228=13,157=14,428=15,259=14,910
15,010=14,979=16,142.
Capacity is 17,113. Never had a game under 11,000 and only that low in the two low seasons. Not great numbers but good for a small market non-trandional market.
@flyersfan345 you sir are an idiot. the pens were only going to move because there arena was old that problem was solved before 2010. indianapolis? football city. halifax might work but it would be a struggle and a new city doesnt make a playoff team. oh and florida has made the playoffs before i think they made it to the stanley cup. Regina doesnt have a big enough arena and is too small. They also wouldnt be well supported because of the riders. Saskatoon might work but it would be a struggle.
@relmofyou LOOK ON THE DATE STUPID MOTHER FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT! OH AND SORRY ABOUT THAT. THE PANTHERS MADE THE PLAYOFFS... THE YEAR BEFORE I WAS BORN. FUCK YOU!
@flyersfan345 yeah i know that thats why i said ...BEFORE 201 you should of read my comment better and done a tiny bit of research before posting a video that has barely any truth to it. AND I UNDERSTAND THIS WAS POSTED ON MAY 13 2010!!!!! THAT STILL DOESNT MAKE YOU ANY LESS OF AN IDIOT.
@relmofyou Well, idiot isn't much of an insult to me. But when you start a comment of like that its gonna piss people off. I just made the video off of my memory. I just tried the best I could to get a quick video in
Seattle? That city couldn't even support an NBA franchise. No reason whatsoever to move a team there or move Nashville. That's a great organisation.
A massive move of teams to the north won't happen because the NHL is NBC's puppet. My guess is that the league will become a 32 team league, adding 2 expansions (Kansas City and Quebec make the most sense). But NBc would not let Canada get more than 8 teams. TSN and CBC are great, but the NHL is ran by NBC. Just my $0.02.
@australoameribelge03 If the NHL was NBC puppet the Flyers would have had a cup last year. NBC is owned by Comcast, who owns the Flyers. It will eventually be 32, I dont think Winnipeg will be moved to the West Coast until there is a 2 team expansion. I really don't want there to be, because I don't want a player stolen by a new team, just because they're new, then we get nothing for it. But when I made this video, Nashville was down the shitter. People have to look at the date, too.
@flyersfan345 Dude you made the video in 2010. The Predators have only had 2 seasons with average attendance under 14,000, one at 13,228 and one at 13,157 seasons 02-03 and 03-04. Only 3 seasons in the 14,000 range and overall average of 15,043 good for 90% capacity. By the way the Penguins, Blackhawks, Devils, Bruins and Caps have all had lower attendance numbers than the Preds have had. Don't believe everything you read.
@flyersfan345 You are right but they did average 16,144 last season which is 94% capacity with over 20 sale outs. Moving Nashville would be a mistake as they are one of the loudest arena in the league.
@flyersfan345 I would say Chicago, San Jose, Montreal and yes Philly is probably overall louder than Nashville on most cases. However all of these arena hold at least 2,000 more fans than Bridgestone Arena. If Nashville held 19 plus thousand they would be one of the loudest if not the loudest in the NHL.
@chrispredsfan Well Chicago has no respect and their only louder during the national anthem. I hate Chicago more than most other cities. The difference with these cities, is that people hate playing their, unless their on the roster, they love it. Wells Fargo Center holds about 19-20, the biggest problem, with these arena's is they don't fit enough people. If Gary's problem is money, fit more than 15,000 in MTS Centre, and maybe 2,000 more in NSH, and Philadelphia, Montreal....
You really need to put more reasons for why your making a move. Repeating the phrase "They don't make a lot of money and they would make more money in canada" isn't strong enough to justify a move. Why would they make more money? Why are they being moved to that specific area? What proof do you have that the team will be better off in their new home? You lack details in my honest opinion.
Atlanta made the playoffs once, what the hell are you talking about? I LOVE the move of the Panthers to Seattle but you're wrong about them not producing. They made the stanley cup final in 96 bud.
TOPEKA! WTF!? Anyone who is so geographically ignorant that they can't tell Kansas City from Topeka really needs to go back to the third grade.

"Florida produced nothing in Miami, not even a playoff berth."
Florida Panthers playoff berths:
2000
1997
1996 - Eastern Conference Champions and Stanley Cup Finalists
Video's list of hockey hotbeds: Seattle, Topeka (the Penguins almost moved to Kansas City, not Topeka).
Regina's metro has only just over 200,000, and their arena only seats 6,000.
And the video calls for expansion to 32 teams when the league is probably over-expanded at 30.

I'd have to disagree on a couple of things. The league does not need more teams.
Naturally the Jets moving changed the landscape again.
Phoenix should go to Québec City.
Dallas' attendance is dropping, the novelty of hockey in Texas may be waning.
Florida did make the cup finals (they threw rats)
Saskatoon may be able to support a franchise (maybe location split with Regina) but be talking a small franchise like Winnipeg.
North Dakota or Wisconsin may be good locations within the US for teams.

hey dumbass 2 things with relocated cities wrong 1 it was KANSAS CITY NOT TOPEKA as well SASKATOON NOT REGINA!!!!!!!! And if you think Hamilton (to close to Buffalo), Indy (no facility could permanently hold a hockey team AND its not popular), Seattle (no facility big enough to hold it permanently), and Nova Scotia (WAY to small) will EVER get an NHL team your a retard. Quebec City (Phoenix most likely) and maybe Hartford (NY Islanders???) will get new teams first.

Indy will NOT build a hockey facility as they already have a very nice arena (home of the Pacers but not suitable for an NHL club) Indy does however have a USHL team (Indiana Ice majority home Capacity - 8200 minority home Bankers Life Fieldhouse Capacity - Appx 14000 while there average attendance is 3381), Quebec i said will get a team (Phoenix) SO READ and Seattle has a CHL Junior team and will not finance a new arena (reason the SuperSonics left) and yes the Twins do suck we all know :)

@flyersfan345 When did Nashville have an empty crowd. Even in the three "bad" season they never played to an empty crowd. Overall attendance is right at 15,000 which is 90% capacity. Bad media and fans opinion is what gave Nashville a bad reputation.

^^ Read it. We ranked 18th in average ticket prices last year and prices have easily increased 5-10% this season.. so we'll probably ranked around 15 this season. Add that to 97% capacity (google: nhl average attendance) and we've had 8 straight sell-outs. Nashville is the model franchise for a southern franchise and if you disagree, you're just ignorant. Research a little more.

@flyersfan345 Nashville has had three bad seasons in 13 years. Here is what I don't get, today watching the Wings/Hawks game the announcers said in the early 80's the Wings actually gave away cars during games to bring in fans. Just 5 years ago the Hawks was averaging under 14,000 pergame. The Bruins/Flyers have had horrible years of attendance. I also don't understand why everyone says the Preds have never won the cup? It tooks the Bruins 39 years, Hawks 49 years and the Nucks have never won it

@Gryfu1 Kansas City or Topeka. Should've noted that I didn't mean the exact city, could be surrounding.

Seattle? That city couldn't even support an NBA franchise. No reason whatsoever to move a team there or move Nashville. That's a great organisation.
A massive move of teams to the north won't happen because the NHL is NBC's puppet. My guess is that the league will become a 32 team league, adding 2 expansions (Kansas City and Quebec make the most sense). But NBc would not let Canada get more than 8 teams. TSN and CBC are great, but the NHL is ran by NBC. Just my $0.02.
australoameribelge03 4 months ago
@australoameribelge03 If the NHL was NBC puppet the Flyers would have had a cup last year. NBC is owned by Comcast, who owns the Flyers. It will eventually be 32, I dont think Winnipeg will be moved to the West Coast until there is a 2 team expansion. I really don't want there to be, because I don't want a player stolen by a new team, just because they're new, then we get nothing for it. But when I made this video, Nashville was down the shitter. People have to look at the date, too.

@flyersfan345 Dude you made the video in 2010. The Predators have only had 2 seasons with average attendance under 14,000, one at 13,228 and one at 13,157 seasons 02-03 and 03-04. Only 3 seasons in the 14,000 range and overall average of 15,043 good for 90% capacity. By the way the Penguins, Blackhawks, Devils, Bruins and Caps have all had lower attendance numbers than the Preds have had. Don't believe everything you read.

@chrispredsfan Well Chicago has no respect and their only louder during the national anthem. I hate Chicago more than most other cities.

If Gary's problem is money, fit more than 15,000 in MTS Centre, and maybe 2,000 more in NSH, and Philadelphia, Montreal....
