The Atlanta Thrashers are moving to Winnipeg.
True North Sports and Entertainment announced Tuesday at Winnipeg’s MTS Centre that it has purchased the struggling team and will shift it to Canada next season.
The deal is reportedly worth $170M, including a $60M relocation fee that would be split by the rest of the league.
Winnipeg has been without NHL hockey since the Jets moved to Phoenix in 1996.
