League Map - Teams and home cities w/images

[Matt-Colorado]

The FHL can stop the search to employ a Cartographer.

I was tooling around with google maps, and plotted the 30 teams locations, might help with any future re-alignment.
Much like Winnipeg, if I play in the same division as last season I don't mind.


Let me know, but I think I got it.

Looks like I'm the big spender when it comes to travel!
Divisions are color coded, obviously...I'm sure you can pinpoint your team, unless I put it somewhere wrong.




Importing the locations to google earth lowered the points a bit, apparently the Toros and Citadels have aquatic arenas.



And a close up of the chaos in the east:



If anymore moves take place I'll edit this accordingly.
Fixed Wilmington, Manchester, and Adirondack.

Unfortunatly I am not a geography major, and have not been to the east coast outside of airports, and you guys apparently aren't too creative at naming cities over there.
If you guys don't mind can you let me know what state/province your team is in:
For the currently open teams, if anyone has the knowledge of the whereabouts of the team LMK.

Wilmington: I've got em plotted in Mass. because that was closest to the division locale. Could be DE, VT, and I doubt NC.

Suffolk: Got you on Long Island right now, I'm pretty sure you're a Rangers guy. Could be MA, or VA.

Cornwall: I've got the Crusaders pegged in Cornwall, ON based off the divisional arrangement, kinda halfway between Ottawa and Montreal. Could be NY, I doubt Cornwall, UK.

Manchester: Got 'em in Manchester, NJ...looks good divisionally. Might be NH or CT.

And where the hell is Adirondack?? I put em in North East NY...

The Reds and Bears labels are on the wrong side of the pins, but the pins are in the right spot...well, Boston is!

This is way cool!

Wilmington - DE
Suffolk - Long Island - bang on
Cornwall is Ontario - correct.
Manchester - NH
Aditondack - Western upstate NY - located in Glenn's Falls

Awesome ! Nice job with this.

[Scott-New York]

This is very cool, nice job Matt. I wonder if something like this could be posted to the website.

[Matt-Colorado]

Heres my realignment prop. if needed. I'm using colors, since I'm not too used to the new division names:
Make Colorado RED.
Make Toronto GREEN.
Make Adirondack YELLOW.

VIOLA!

Bumping this for excellence !

I should have read this post before posting my earlier one. This would work.

[John-Michigan]

we need to go to the west, the league is losing valuable revenue

[Matt-Colorado]

That 'Someone' will be me. Once everyone has moved and fall semester has started I can use our departments cool new GIS system to make a really high speed-low drag map.

Either that or I'll just update this one, lol.

All real hockey names but Deer Ticks not allowed? Adam texted he wants to be the Braves because he couldn't think of a more boring over used sports name.

John if you could make some mock ups of the Milwaukee Braves with Navy Red White He would thank you.

the mighty ducks were amazing, especially the ones coached by mr. bombay
