Jim Balsillie and PSE Sports & Entertainment have spent millions of dollars and spent countless hours trying to bring NHL hockey to Hamilton. Show your appreciation for their efforts by signing the thank you card.
You gave it your best attempt to get a team in a sport which you and many other Canadians are so passionate about. Although the NHL felt you are not the type of owner they feel you would be to meet what the expectations of the NHL, but we as fans appreciate your efforts. Myself, I have given up on the NHL and will focus on less politcal hockey such as the OHL. If I may suggest, give up on the NHL dream, take the millions you had intended on buying a team, gain interest from other investors and create a new league which will show fans that the passion belongs on the ice and not in board rooms making money.
Jim,
Thank you for recognizing Hamilton / Southern Ontario as a market overflowing with hockey mad fans, and many thanks for a great effort by yourself and your team in attempting to bring hockey back to it’s roots, where it belongs.
Whether you choose to pursue this dream any further or not, you will never know just how great full many of us are for what you tried to do.
Thanks again
The NHL claims that it is not anti-Hamilton and not anti-Canada, but actions speak louder than words. When the Coyotes move to Kansas City or Las Vegas in a year from now, we will see that the NHL isn’t opposed to franchise relocation at all, they are just opposed to putting more teams in Canada generally and opposed to putting a team in Hamilton specifically.
Jim,
I just wanted to say thanks…for being a dick. Hahahaha. I guess you showed everyone what your really are; A loser. This is why I’m the commissioner and your a greedy, worthless piece of shit.

Next time you don’t get what you want, try playing by the rules…
Patriotism, just another kind of racism.

I just wanted to say that you should buy an iphone. They keep you more entertained and give you a better stock portfolio than a hockey team
