Atlanta was awarded an NHL franchise on June 25, 1997.
This marked a return to Atlanta, Georgia by the NHL. The
old Atlanta Flames team departed for Calgary in 1980 and
became the Calgary Flames. The nickname "Thrashers",
after Georgia's state bird, the brown thrasher, was selected
from a fan poll. "Thrashers" had actually been
runner-up to "Flames" for Atlanta's first NHL
team and Philips Arena, the Thrashers' new home, was built
on the site of the former Omni, which had been home to
the Flames. The Thrashers clinched a spot in the Stanley
Cup playoffs for the first time in team history in the
2006-2007 season, while also capturing the first division
championship in franchise history. They were swept 4-0
in the first round of the playoffs by the New York Rangers.

Philips Arena
Philips Arena is located next to CNN Center, at the intersection
of Marietta Street and Centennial Olympic Park Drive (formerly
Techwood Drive). From MARTA, the arena is located on the
East / West line just one stop west of the Five Points
Station.
Philips Arena is an indoor arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
It is home to the Atlanta Thrashers of the NHL and the
Atlanta Thrashers of the NBA, seating 18,545 for hockey.
The arena was laid out in a rather unusual manner, with
the club seats and luxury boxes aligned solely along one
side of the playing surface, and the general admission
seating along the other three sides. The layout at Philips
was done so as to be able to bring the bulk of the seats
closer to the playing surface while still making available
a sufficient number of revenue-raising club seats and
lodges. The arena is sponsored by and named for Philips
Electronics and therefore contains a large number of television
screens made by Philips.
