These polls will close on Monday around Noon ET, when we'll name the general managers and teams will begin putting together their protected lists.

Without further adieu...

Boo to the people voting for the old names. Boo, I say.

The old teams are gone. Time to move forward.

Really, nostalgia is good up to a point.

If they agree to only sign former Jets and Nordiques for the first four years, I’ll allow it.

So Adam Foote is going to play 60 minutes a night at all 6 positions for QC? I bet they still win more than Edmonton.

Do the franchises have rights over old names? Like, do the Avs have the rights to a Nordiques franchise or anything?

Yeah, I don’t like the old names. The Nordiques are the Avalanche and the Jets are the Coyotes.

Listen, if the Ottawa Senators can come back, the Winnipeg Jets can come back.

I’m fine with bringing the old names back. They should bring the logos back and everything. Especially the Jets. That was a great logo.

I would’ve gone for “Winnipeg Starship,” personally.

You perhaps knew me better as "Your Nation's Capital." Same great commentary, now with 100% more transparency!

This was a fun exercise before it turned into a I-don’t-like-that-my-team-left protest vote.

You had to know it was going there tho. Fifty, seventy, oh eternity years from now, it will still be that way.
