Lots of possible unreliable sources:

As Smythe Division rivals, the Canucks had several rivalries in the early 1990's with Winnipeg, starting from a playoff spot in 1991, to the Smythe Division semi-finals in 1992 and 1993 which the Canucks eventually won but the Winnipeg Jets put on a huge fight.
祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

Not much support for the Thrashers in Atlanta. Can we stop putting a team there???? Blue streak, red streak...remember?

Yes, the 300 fans that showed up at the "Save the Thrashers" rally will be very upset at the loss of this team.

Congratulations to Winnipeg in getting another NHL team. Let this be a lesson to Atlanta that after losing an NHL for the second time, that is certainly not a city to home a pro hockey team.

It would be good if this painting would be re-assembled and placed in MTS Centre.

And I wonder if the Winnipeg's team will acknowledge their former reincarnated greats. Unlike the Avalanche for the Nordiques but like the Coyotes for the first Jets, they acknowledge retired before the move:

# 9 Bobby Hull
# 25 Thomas Steen

Conversely, will Winnipeg's team acknowledge two long-term Jets greats who were retired after the move to Phoenix:

#10 Dale Hawerchuk
#27 Teppo Numminen
