@CamVonHeem @HockeyWithDevin Oh, I know, and it's been maddening to watch every team around us win or go to OT every single night.

@dj4aces @HockeyWithDevin Ill take 4-4-2 all day compared to last season. Only problem is every team around us is like 8-1-1

In a sudden turn of events, US 12-month inflation expectations have surged to 5.2%, the highest level since March 2023.
In just 3 weeks, markets have gone from pricing-in rate cuts to rate hikes.

@AlexDanvers2017 Seeing as how his version of "CERN" is conservative education reform, something tells me this is exactly what he wants.

You want a bloodbath? Bc that’s how you get a bloodbath.
There would be brawls in the halls and bribes come student selection season.
The year before I came, a teacher who transferred to another school got the best of the upcoming fifth graders to follow her to that school.

Proposal for districts: Cut the Chromebook budget, end the multimillion dollar useless learning software contracts, cut the district office bureaucracy in half Return the savings to a teacher merit pay program

@JaredYamamoto @NHL I agree with you, but considering that the Thrashers basically moved (without getting into deep dive details) because Atlanta Spirit kicked the team out of Philips, the idea will make all the wrong people nervous.

@DetroitRedWings He was my favorite player in the 1990s! Happy birthday!

@JeffreyBrower1 I saw a post earlier from DirecTV that said they're trying to get BravesVision by opening day. According to the Braves site though, their games will be broadcast locally on WANF and WPCH. At least, according to this:

I live in Atlanta. I pay a ton on DirecTV and streaming services. I am not buying another streaming service. I don’t like them. Ya can’t make me. I don’t even watch them. They’re for my wife and kids.

@TheRunningMan68 @Fredward_Frex @Ria_Martin There's a reason the league has talked up the city in recent years. It's happening, and it's going to be fun to read all the crying from folks when it does.
English
@dj4aces @Fredward_Frex @Ria_Martin Ain’t happening! Failed twice already. No way they give Atlanta a 3rd opportunity to FAIL.

#NHL to Atlanta effort continued…
Here are the renderings of the proposed development for the North Point Mall area (Alpharetta).
Proposal includes 20k seat NHL arena, 2k seat community hockey rink, 4k seat music hall, movie theater, 750k sq ft of office, parks and public trail space. A hotel as well.
English
@detroitnews Unfortunately for Republicans, some of us have actually sat down and read the bill. This isn't about requiring ID, I have to present that when I vote anyway.
English
Republicans hope to label Democrats as party of election fraud in voter ID debate detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…
English
@MarkGriffithATL @NHLtoAtlanta Highly doubtful. Personally speaking, I think this is more meant to illustrate what the area could look like from ground level. There's a few Matthews' Leafs jerseys floating around too (see the left side of that rendering).
English
@NHLtoAtlanta Love seeing all the Blueland jerseys in the rendering. Could this provide some clue as to a potential team name?
English
New York Life has released renderings of what an arena & entertainment district would look like at the North Point Mall site. Plans include a 20k seat hockey arena, 2k seat community rink, and other attached notes like a movie theater, hotel, and music hall.

@mbisschop11 @NHLtoAtlanta The NHL is missing Houston (~7.3m pop.), Atlanta (~6.4m), and Phoenix (~5m), three top-10 markets without teams. They'll be coming back.
English
@NHLtoAtlanta I love looking at pictures 🤣. But this means nothing unless the NHL is serious about coming back to Atlanta which I’m not sure they are.
English
@FideCounsel @NHLtoAtlanta The same thing is planned for South Forsyth, if Krause wins the NHL franchise. The only thing missing from his proposal is the on-site community rink.
I would argue that, if they win the NHL bid and construction begins, leasing that office space won't be a problem.
English
@NHLtoAtlanta So they want to take the entire mall except for the Von Maur? Seems excessive. Just lop-off the Sears and JC Penny and build the arena.
There is no demand for that much office space.
English
@TheRunningMan68 @Fredward_Frex @Ria_Martin Newsflash: Cities don't receive franchises based on some fan's perception of merit. They receive franchises because someone with deep pockets throws money at the league.
Get ready. Atlanta is returning.
English
@Fredward_Frex @Ria_Martin It doesn’t matter. There are more deserving cities for NHL expansion.
English
@jazbo_14 @Ria_Martin Don't believe me? That's okay. You can look up the following court cases:
* Steve Belkin v Atlanta Spirit (there's a few of these)
* David McDavid v Turner Broadcasting
* King & Spalding v Atlanta Spirit
Reading discovery documents can be very enlightening.
English
@jazbo_14 @Ria_Martin You're wrong. Just blatantly incorrect.
Atlanta Spirit bought the team because they had to in order to get the Hawks and arena, and immediately started trying to sell the Thrashers. It had nothing to do with fan support, and everything to do with malicious ownership.
English
@TonyTrotmann @UrinatingTree The 12% share was purchased with a full value of $2.66bn in mind, or for a purchase price of $319.2m
English
@UrinatingTree i mean the NHL is looking at pretty much the same now with houston/atlanta, especially after just a minority stake in the hurricanes was what, 2.6B?
