Reports the Atlanta Thrashers are all but certain to move to Winnipeg next season have caught members of the NHL team off guard.
Bryan Little, who was raised in Cambridge, says until two weeks ago the talk was all about the potential move of the Phoenix Coyotes.
He tells Sportsnet Radio-The Fan 590 many of his teammates are in shock over how fast things have happened and are wondering about a number of things, such as whether they need to sell their homes.
Keep in mind, at this point both the NHL and True North Sports and Entertainment – the potential buyer of the team – are disputing the report, first reported by Sportsnet Radio-The Fan 590’s Stephen Brunt.
Brunt, meantime, says the announcement will come Tuesday.
