<p>Once upon a time Atlanta had a hockey team called the Atlanta Flames that used to play at the old Omni.  Calgary took a liking to them and the Flames became the Calgary Flames.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Several years later Atlanta finally got another hockey team that played at Philips Arena.  Until today.  At high noon they were sold to Winnipeg and I assume they will henceforth be known as the Winnipeg Thrashers.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have no idea what happens to the Gwinnett Gladiators, a farm team of the Thrashers.  They'll probably become the Halifax Gladiators. <span><img alt="mad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/mad.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span></p>

<p>(and of course, just in case there are any misunderstandings, this is all tongue in cheek. <span id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130688915046316"><img alt="biggrin.gif" id="user_yui_3_3_0_8_130688915046315" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span>)</p>

<p>Well if only more than 2 people would have shown up to watch...</p>

<p>I'm a bit bemused by it all.  The Winnipeg Jets are the Phoenix Coyotes.  People claiming "We've got the Jets back" are just delusional.</p>
