Oh, it's sweet to remember the night of May 19, 2011 - the night when Stephen Brunt broke the news that True North was buying the Atlanta Thrashers and moving them to Winnipeg!
Enjoy the link for the interview with Stephen Brunt, and a nice bonus interview with Kurt Kielback (and Darren Dreger, although he was part of the news management exercise):

I will try to figure out how to post some of the photo's here as well.
With an online article, a good old fashioned radio show, and the internet connectivity, Manitobans rallied at the forks, at the long-hoped-for news.
What a night!!!
Thanks again, and acknowledgement to 1290 and the Illegal Curve Hockey Show.
