Some Southeast teams have been very successful and I don't think it's fair to say that they shouldn't have NHL teams, simply because of geographical location. Sure, there's a much greater hockey tradition in Canada and other areas in the US, but why not expand hockey's influence and develop new fan bases? The more fans we win for the sport, the higher the chances that more games will be shown on TV in the US.
Anyone can point out that some SE teams, such as the Florida Panthers, aren't doing so hot, but there are Canadian and NE US teams that are sucking just a bad. Give the SE teams a break, eh?
