I think it would have been smart to also add another team somewhere in Canada or the Northeast. Keeps you an even 32, but this will be big for Vegas. Hope that the Raiders can move there as well.

Oh come on. Like they don't have the right to try and expand their market? The NHL has a decent track record of placing teams in non-traditional hockey towns. Nashville, LA, Tampa, Dallas, and San Jose are all competing at a high level and have built a steady fan base as well.

Arizona and Florida are the only two really struggling at the moment so don't give me that argument of it just being a "money grab". Which sport isn't by the way?

Maybe this bodes well for Seattle?


If Seattle ever gets an NHL team, it won't be until after the NBA has returned. If they add another in the near future it will more likely be Quebec

I'm sure any team name involving gambling, the mafia, or Sinatra is out which is a damn shame.

What are chances NBA expands? Or what team would move to Seattle?

Quebec will get a relocated team but right now nobody in the east wants to move west.
