SabresBillsFan Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I live in Las Vegas and we don't have enough hockey fans here to fill a 16,000 seat arena on a nightly basis. NHL is stupid for even thinking about Vegas. Why not look at Arizona and Florida and try to help them out instead of adding a third team to that list that would struggle to fill seats. Agreed. Apart from the fact that I think expansion in general is a terrible idea when you already have franchises that are not well-supported by their fanbases (Panthers, cough, cough), I have a hard time picturing a successful one in Vegas. There are far too many other (less expensive) things for visitors to do there, and no idea how much interest there would be from permanent residents. I live in Vegas and will tell u it's not gonna work. MLS team good chance because of all the Hispanic population but hockey big fat negative.

pi2000 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 I really want at least one team added to the East, so the Red Wings can go back to the west where they belong. If the time zone thing is really that tough, I'm sure detroit could petition the State to go CST. They screwed up the re-alignment. They should have created a "Great Lakes" division when they had the chance.... Buffalo, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, and Pittsburgh. That would be great.

X. Benedict Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 They screwed up the re-alignment. They should have created a "Great Lakes" division when they had the chance.... Buffalo, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, and Pittsburgh. That would be great. Ultimately, they didn't want to take Crosby out of east coast market games, although the official reason was that the Philly Pitt rivalry was too important.

Eleven Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Nope. The only one more recent that I can think of (Frank Summers) does not qualify as a star. Tweet the answer to me, will ya? I'm about to leave work and I can't leave this hanging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
