June 21, 2011 is a date I'd rather soon forget, but unfortunately, will never be able to.
That was the day my beloved Atlanta Thrashers - my favorite team on the planet since fourth grade - were officially sold to True North Sports and jetted off to Winnipeg.
One city was given a second chance at a hockey team, and I was forced into choosing a new team.
But where to start? All I had known was the Thrashers as a hockey fan - their first season was my Kindergarten year in 1998-99 and they were officially sold a little over a month after I graduated from high school.
