As a Hartford Whalers fan (who, admittedly, lives no where near Hartford), I *immediately* and *instantly* became a Carolina Hurricanes fan when they moved. Why not? It was the same bunch of players. I know some fans don't think like that - they have beefs with management or whatever - but to me its *the same team*, just with new uniforms and logos. I mean, if they changed all the players, I might think twice, but that's not what happens. I've now been a Carolina fan for 10 years, and I live no where near Carolina.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
