Areos just beat Hamilton and won the Caulder Cup championship!! It ain't a championship unless we riot like the big cities. I'm going downtown to burn this mutha down! Who's in? AHL CHAMPIONS !!!
2 Avco Cups, Turner Cup, and now a Calder Cup. Hopefully, the Stanley Cup will be added someday. The future looks bright for my Minnesota Wild.
Instead of contracting the Preds, how about them moving here to Houston. They stole our football team. We'll steal there hockey team.
Well not really. Not yet at least. Here's the attendance comparison from the past 2 seasons. Attendance is declining, though. I can't believe they've been there 5 years!!! I didn't even know they existed until their 3rd year!!! I don't know how Nashville will support them, though. The next few years (especially after the upcoming and inevitable labor issues) will be interesting to see where they end up.
They run ads in nashville saying the rumors are not true, and the team is here to stay... they dont' seem to get support.. no one even talks about them on sports radio. and the hosts even laugh about how they dont' go to the games..
The Aeros are pro. Think of them as AAA -- one step below the NHL, with a lot of players on their way up. In fact, the average AHL player makes twice as much as the average WNBA player.
In the words of Tenacious D: We get the feeling we should f*** s*** up, Yeah, we should f***ing start a riot. A riot! We have 'em screaming in the streets, we have 'em tippin' over s*** and breakin' f***ing windows of small businesses, and settin' f***in fires! and settin' f***in fires! and settin' f***in fires!
