"Oh say can Veseyyyyyy........"

The Nucks???

I believe it would be VERY smart for the Leaves to package a deal for Shattenkirk. They (the Leaves) have a lot of forwards and could put together 4-5 of them to get Shattenkirk. As a Blues fan I'd like the Leaves to offer Matthews, Nylander, Reilly, Marner, Komorov and Gardner. I think the Leaves would need to sweeten the pot and add 2 first round picks and a second like they did to get Kessel. Plus they'd need to add JVR and Soshnikov and Connor Brown and Travis Dermott will likely get it done. Plus another 1st round pick. And JJ Piccinic. And Kapanen. So, to sum up. Shattenkirk to the Leaves for Matthews, Nylander, Reilly, Marner, Komorov, Gardner, 2 first round picks, 1 second round pick, JVR, Soshnikov, Connor Brown, Dermott, a 1st round pick, Piccinic, Kapanen, and Kyle Dubas. We're practically giving Shattenkirk away at this point. Add Zack Hyman as well and we'll do it, but you owe us one Leave fans.

There's sarcastic and then there is this... try harder next time. Leafs didn't add enough.

Coolio.

HockeyDB has them at 5717.

Saskatoon would be cool. Can't see it ever happening though

Too far away from anywhere but Edmonton or Calgary, really.

The rink is wasted on a Major Junior team though. Seats 12,500.

Bingo,

Was that facility built for the purpose of SK hosting the World Juniors?

They are still hoping the St. Louis Blues move there.

It was built because Bill Hunter wanted to buy the Blues and move them to Saskatoon.

It's hosted the World Juniors twice since, but it was meant to be an NHL building.

...Saskatoon only has a population of about 300,000 today and that's after nearly a decade of rapid growth.

In the trash where it belongs.

That's because that's what it is.

Charlotte was 14th in the AHL in attendance with an average 5905 per game.

Better than St. Johns, Wilkes-Barre, Stockton, Utica, Albany, Bridgeport, Hartford, etc.
- BINGO!

And Carolina averaged 12204 attendance good for last in the NHL

2204 Paid attendance

204 Paid full price attendance

Nah. Attendance numbers dropped so much the last few years BECAUSE they only give out about 300 freebie tickets per night now. Old numbers were inflated by about 2500 tickets per night.

I don't think this is true.

IIRC, Hunter had plans for a much bigger arena, which died with the NHL blocking the sale.

A quick googling shows it was built after and separate from the Hunter plan.

It was much smaller when it opened in 1988.

Ah, right, right. Hunter is ultimately responsible for it, though. The city would have never built a building like that if not for him.
