2010–11 Atlanta Thrashers season

The 2010–11 Atlanta Thrashers season was the team's 12th season of operation in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Thrashers posted a regular season record of 34 wins, 36 losses and 12 overtime/shootout losses for 80 points, failing to qualify for the Stanley Cup playoffs for the fourth consecutive season. It was the last season for the franchise in Atlanta. It was announced on May 31, 2011 that the team was bought and would be relocated to Winnipeg, for the 2011–12 NHL season to become the new Winnipeg Jets.Winnipeg cheers return of NHL

During the off-season, the Thrashers announced that they would not retain John Anderson as head coach. The team also promoted Don Waddell to president and Rick Dudley to general manager. Assistant coaches Randy Cunneyworth, Todd Nelson and Steve Weeks were also not retained.Thrashers Promote Don Waddell to President and Rick Dudley to General Manager
Dudley made his first trade as general manager on June 23, 2010. It was a major trade, a nine-player trade (including picks) with the Chicago Blackhawks. The Thrashers received Dustin Byfuglien, Ben Eager, Brent Sopel and Akim Aliu for Marty Reasoner, Joey Crabb, Jeremy Morin, the Devils' first-round pick (#24 overall) in 2010 and the Devils' second-round pick (#54 overall) in 2010. The Blackhawks, Stanley Cup champions, found it necessary to trade players for prospects and picks as they were in difficulty with the salary cap.
On June 24, the team named Craig Ramsay as the new head coach. Ramsay, who had been an assistant coach for the Boston Bruins for the previous three seasons, had played with Dudley with the Buffalo Sabres during his playing career. In the following weeks, the Thrashers hired an associate coach, John Torchetti, and an assistant coach, Mike Stothers.http://thrashers.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=534199 The team also hired Clint Malarchuk as the team's goaltending consultant.
