So when does Winnipeg announce their new team name and logos? I really don't want to end up like the NBA games where the Oklahoma City basketball team had to use generic colors and logos because the team name and colors were not announced quick enough. Can someone assure me this wont happen in Winnipeg?

. Well I'm happy it's in the game but sad the thrashers are moving. Although Atlanta hardly has anyone show up a game but still.

when you did this, though, it messed up each teams prospects. Winnipeg would get Minnesota's prospects, Nashville would get Winnipeg's and Minnesota gets Nashville's. Which sucks if you plan on being one of those teams.

Talking about realignement, when we move a team or replace one in BaGM, we should have the option to also move the affiliate team.

Then, for those who will move the Jets in NHL 12, they won't have to move all the team prospects from Chicago (if the affiliate team is staying there) instead of moving all the prospects to the affiliate of the team they are moving with.
