  - Can't remember what the official URL will be. (A cheque might settle that other one.) -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jun 24, 09:45 5
    - all of the official team sites are sub-domains of nhl.com. -- nm - Reagen Jun 24, 09:46 2
      - but, as an example, I think canucks.ca redirects to that subdomain -- nm - Beryllium Jun 24, 09:49
      - *nods* -- nm - zork Jun 24, 09:47
    - winnipegjets.ca seems like a good bet -- nm - Beaker Jun 24, 09:46 1
      - I did that first it just has WINNIPEG JETS along the page -- nm - Beaker Jun 24, 09:46
