         > I would have to agree with you on this one.  A neutral, big city
would be much more suitable for 3 teams, fans, and media.  Plus there would
be no "home ice advantage" either.  They play the NCAA basketball tourneys
in neutral locations.  Why not do it with hockey? :)
        Just my 2 cents worth.
