Winnipeg Sun:  NHL team in Peg would be good for businessIt would certainly help to bring 15,000 people downtown 3 to 4 times a week during the NHL seasonOf course if I lose my standing reservation at Earls Main on Wednesday, then I’d prefer for a new NHL team to play at the Ice Plex west of the city.

Winnipeg Sun:  Players would come here.  As the longest tenured Jets so appropriately states:
