Does anyone here think that Hamilton's tragic hero Jim Balsille will attempt to buy the Thrashers and make yet another attempt to bring the NHL to Hamilton?

NHL won't let it happen. It would affect the leafs which bring in the most revenue in the league.. And the Sabres would be affected as well. Hamilton is practically Toronto.. A 40 min trade ride away

I think I mentioned this somewhere here before, but I'm gonna say it again - He should concentrate in fixing his BlackBerry brand first as its losing a lot of its market share to Apple, Android, etc...

If Phoenix doesn't go through, I would mind seeing our boy Nigel Dawes back in a Jets uniform if we get Atlanta.

What other option does the NHL have? Other than Winnipeg there is no other market with an owner and an arena that can take on a team at a moments notice as Quebec dosen't have an arena yet.

If Hamilton really wants a team they need to boycott going across the border to Sabres games. About 1/3 of the butts in the seats at HSBC Arena on any given night come from the Niagara Region. Also, we all saw the "Buffalo" World Juniors. It was about as much "Buffalo" as "Fargo" was back a few years ago. They might as well have been called Hamilton - South and Winnipeg - South.
PS: Love the new uni design!
