The Battle Of Balsillie

This song is dedicated to Mr. Jim Balsillie for his efforts in trying to bring an NHL Franchise back to Hamilton.This song is not just about Hamilton getting an NHL team, it emphasizes how unfair Mr. Balsillie is being treated by the NHL tyrants. Their attacks on Balsillie's character are outrageous and unfounded.It seems that Bettman and Daly are hellbent in preventing Hamilton Ontario from ever having an NHL team again! Please view this video and share it with anyone and everyone in support of Mr. Balsillie's NHL bid.Whether or not the team comes to Hamilton, Mr. Balsillie deserves to be recognized as a serious contender..
Good luck Jim! Hamilton supports you, I support you.

Let's Go Tigers!!! Eat 'em raw!

(Maybe we can send Daly and Bettman some tickets to be honourary guests in the Endzone section of Ivor Wynne.)

What does everyone think the team should be called? Many people like the Tigers but Coyotes is appropiate. We do have coyotes in Hamilton.

@thebig1 That was the Balsillie trial where he was basically trying to sue his way into the NHL. This is different because the City of Glendale is trying to subsidize $197 million to Matt Hulsizer to buy the team and keep it in

Glendale. The potential law suit does not include the NHL. It's a tax-watchdog group considering litigation against the city for breaking the Gift Clause of the Arizona Constitution. The NHL has no power there.

[thebig1]

@FAITHandLOGIC I don't know but there was recently a court decision and the court basiclty allowed Bettman to do as he wished. So I guess Bettman is above the law in this case.

[FAITHandLOGIC]

@thebig1 I'm glad you're happy with the Aeros. As for Phx, Bettman has said many times that they are not leaving Phx but the issues in Glendale are out of the NHL's hands. The NHL does not dictate what is legal or illegal in accordance with the AZ State Gift Clause.

Whether or not GWI decides to sue the CoG has no influence from the NHL. Bottom line is that the NHL will not continue as owner of this club for another season. It has to end now.

[thebig1]

@FAITHandLOGIC I'm not a coyotes fan. I live in Houston and I'm a fan of the AHL Houston Aeros. I love my aeros and would pick them over the NHL anyday. This situation with the Coyotes is very weird but in the end if Bettman wants something it will be that way and he has all but said the Coyotes are not leaving phoenix.

[FAITHandLOGIC]

@thebig1 Your Yotes are about to find their asses in court so I wouldn't get so high and mighty on yourself. They're headed for Winnipeg while the Trashers are headed for Quebec.

[thebig1]

@jhi82 The Coyotes are not leaving Phoenix AT ALL. If they were do you really think Bettman and the NHL would have been so public about and so hawkish about how the new owner SHOULD KEEP THE TEAM IN PHOENIX? No my fgriend the Coyotes are going nowhere and as sad as it is Hartford will never see the NHL again. Hartford should feel blessed they even have the AHL.

[jhi82]

@thebig1 Carolina ranks 21st out of 30 by Forbes thats with a 11 year old arena. I didn't say when Carolina should move. I like to see Hartford get there Whalers back. Plus with the Coyotes leaving Phoenix in the near future. My guess, and other good sources there will be other teams leaving for the stronger Canadian dollar.

[thebig1]

@jhi82 Your an idiot. None of that is going to happen. Furthuremore Carolina is one of the most successful NHL teams over the last number of years no way they should be moved. Atlanta is staying put to because I like them where they are and so does the NHL. If your going to maske posts make realistic posts not stupid ones.

[jhi82]

Phoenix to Winnipeg

Tampa to Hamilton

Carolina to Hartford

Atlanta to Quebec

KC, Seattle get expansion teams or other failing franchises

my take but only if the arenas are brought up to 18,000+ seats with 100+ skyboxs or more to make money.

[lakesidepark2112]

Should have been called The Hamilton Steelheads (as in the tv series Power Play on CTV). Ohh well. Good effort. Good luck to Quebec in trying to get theirs back.
