Top 10 reasons why the Thrashers are moving to Winnipeg

10) No one in Atlanta aware that the town had a hockey team in the first place

9) Life in Canada just was not exciting without that Calgary / Edmonton / Winnipeg 3-way dance of death

8) Despite all evidence to the contrary, Canadians like hockey a lot

7) Ice incapable of remaining in Atlanta for more than 15 minutes at a time

6) Without the NHL, Winnipeg just isn't as exciting

5) Frequent flyer miles from Winnipeg still being in the Eastern Conference next year will keep the NHL solvent

4) Now, Dale Hawerchuk can finally die in peace, come home, and stop hogging the Sweet N Low at the local Tim Horton's

3) The move prevents any NHL footage from having that stupid Tomahawk Chop chant from happening

2) Now that the Canadian dollar outpaces the U.S., Winnipeg actually has more money than any U.S. city

1) You would not believe the deals you get on housing and moving vans by actually wanting to go there
