I really think expansion into some of the non-traditional markets really was a bad thing for hockey. I know there are some die hard fans in some of those smaller, non-traditional cities, but I don't think on the whole the support is all that great. Not to mention the fact that it has severely diluted the talent. The increase in the number of teams means that more of the marginal and older players are able to stick around. I think that has really helped drive up the cost of a moderately decent player.
Let's see hockey again in Winipeg and Quebec. GO Nordiques!
