Winnipeg will have a new NHL team

Winnipeg “the center of Canada and probably the best hockey city in the country” may once again showcase a National Hockey League franchise. Sources (very good ones) have told myself that local intrests from Winnipeg Goldeyes tycoon Sam Katz and old Winnipeg Jets owner Barry Shenkarow have thrown together enough money, along with a new downtown arena, to potentially bring the NHL back to Winnipeg. This should bring joy to Winnipeg fans angry at the loss of the Jets since the original team left for Phoenix in 1996.
