Pittsburg "may" move to Wpg
Its mostly an article about Lemieux and him being out for the year, but there is this paragraph that caught my eye...

Nothing I'd like more than to see Winnipeg get back an NHL team. It was a shame that the Jets moved to PHX. Wpg is a great hockey town.The Penguins play in Mellon Arena, the oldest arena in the league. It opened in 1961 and the Penguins have a lease there until 2007. Lemieux has repeatedly stated that if the Penguins do not have a new arena in place by then, the chances are it could relocate. One possible candidate may be Winnipeg, which is building a 15,000-seat arena and recently expressed an interest in acquiring the Penguins, if they go on the market.
