The Devils showed no real interest in resigning him, and I'm not sure if I can support them anymore. I think he has earned the right to be able to finish out his career there. I know he wants to be the starter, but any good competitor would feel that way. New Jersey just simply cast him away. I'm just not sure if I can root for a Devils team without Brodeur in net. Am I overreacting, or should I use this opportunity to start supporting the local team?
Columbus is the new team on the block and it would be nothing wrong with liking the local team. I'm a Pens fan but if they don't play the blue Jackets then I hope the Blue jackets win.
Man Rules have specific provisions regarding relocation (yours or the team's) as well as expansion teams. However, the statue of limitations for the latter have expired. :RpS_razz:
