Anson Carter leads group vying to bring NHL back to Atlanta

Literally just learned his middle name is "Horace."

I know people are all "But they already failed twice," but really, the Thrashers were a GD mess before they even took the ice. All four principal owners were so embroiled in multiple lawsuits with one another that it severely limited what the team was able to offer players. It literally cost them their best center at the time, Marc Savard, when it came time to re-signing him, and other players followed suit.

I'd like to see it happen, just maybe pick a better name this time around.
