Dear Klaud,
On behalf of ownership, we want you to know how excited we are about today's annoucement that an agreement, in principle, has been reached between the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Player's Association.
We have heard from so many of our loyal Thrashers fans expressing their enthusiasm, and we want to thank each and every one of our Season Ticket Holders and fans, who showed they are "True Blue" supporters by sticking with us throughout this process.
Don Waddell, Bob Hartley and our entire organization are fully prepared to keep building what we have started. There is still a lot of work ahead of us and we eagerly look forward to the ratification process and the return of the best young team in hockey to Philips Arena this fall.
Sincerely,
Bruce Levenson
Atlanta Thrashers Co-Owner and Governor
