NHL expansion to Las Vegas is 'a done deal'

Hopefully somebody ponies up for KC. We look to be 4th in running. No ownership group will hurt once again. |

This pisses me off. Everyone's arguments for why KC can't support an NHL or NBA team are based off of things that happened over 30 years ago. This is a completely different city now. With the NBA, you'd be tapping KU, MIZZOU and KSTATE fan bases. It makes no sense to me. If we can fill a ****ing soccer stadium regularly, we can support a pro hockey or basketball team. Especially with the gentrification and residential boom happening in the downtown area.

Closest time KC got to having an NHL team was when Del Biaggio was part of the ownership group that bought the Nashville Preds. He was that group's "out" until he went to the pokey for fraud.
Would love to see KC get an NHL team but looks like it's just not in the cards.

Quebec City vs. Montreal Toronto vs Toronto Seattle vs. Vancouver Las Vegas vs. ??? I'd rather have KC get a team than Vegas. It would setup a natural rivalry with the Blues. |

Toronto won't allow another team there, Seattle told the league to piss off (they want the nba). One slot left in Central, either KC or Houston. Or the could swap a team to the central but none of them in the East would want that. Columbus might have to, in order to accommodate Quebec

I went to a Bills game when Flutie was their QB. Most of the parking lot was filled with tour buses with Ontario license plates. BTW - Does anyone think KC is a better NHL market than Seattle or Milwaukee? |

Las Vegas is a PERFECT place to put an NBA team. Absolutely perfect.

Won't all the hockey ice melt in the Las Vegas' heat?
