The NHL will be back in Winnipeg for the 2011-2012 season, but there are still some questions to be answered.

The sale and move of the Atlanta franchise to Winnipeg is subject to the approval of the NHL board of governors on June 21, 2011. However, it is a virtual guarantee. 

To solidify the deal True North Sports and Entertainment has to sell the league minimum 13,000 season tickets. The‘Drive To 13000’ season ticket campaign was then launched to secure this NHL franchise in Winnipeg. They are well on their way to the goal of 13,000, with around 4000 sold already and a public offering set for Saturday. 

For now, the most important question for the Winnipeg franchise is, what is the name of the team going to be?
