NHL Smarch 2015 |OT| Toronto is tanking on purpose this time.

Vegas is happening. Considering Bettman gave them the ok to start a ticket drive, I can't see it not happening now.
Then the waiting game until they relocate begins.
UNTAPPED MARKET
Also, they found people dumb enough to put a team there and pay huge expansion fees to do it.

What?! So many more deserving cities than Vegas.

It's gonna happen, the market is Vegas is cheap as fuck to get to and to stay in, people from almost anywhere would go to games there because it'll be quicker and easier to see a game in Vegas via not needing to worry about transportation and parking etc... Just another reason to go to Vegas. It would be at least 3x cheaper for me to fly to Vegas for a weekend vs Calgary
The Yotes are probably moving in a few years anyways
also you guys need to stop trying to rob McDavid of his dream
He always dreamed of being a Coyote?

Las Vegas most likely got attention due to two new arenas being built. Though of all leagues, the NHL seems far riskier than the NBA would.

Hmm interesting point. Denver to Vegas is cheap. Of course denver to Denver is free...

:lol amazing
Yeah, but there are problems with almost all of them like no arena (Seattle), no ownership potential (Houston), or a city that doesn't want a team (Kansas City)
Seattle mayor is apparently ok with NHL first.
he's the prototypical Flyers fan

Perfect playoff scenario for us is still on the table for us thanks to a bunch of favorable results tonight. If we can stay on track and take the number 1 seed in the East and the Sens and Panthers continue doing their part is chase down the Bruins, we can 1) be free of Ovechkin at least for the first two rounds, 2) be safe from the Bruins who are always a bad matchup for us, and 3) face a tired out wild card team that should be running out of gas by the time the playoffs start. All while we have a fresh and rested Henrik Lundqvist, Martin St. Louis, and Kevin Klein ready to go again. And, as a bonus, the Penguins and Islanders will get to give each other hell for a while.
Even then, nothing in the playoffs will be easy, but that is far and away our best case scenario.
Keep it going, kids!

Not to mention the issue of making the conferences even more disproportionate to one another (Quebec). If only Florida was on the market.

They're been talks that Broward County may decide their fate come late May of this year. Dunno if that still is the case.

And hopefully Bettman won't move heaven and earth to keep them there.
If it is, let us hope they do the right thing and only let the state of Florida have one hockey team.

Report me for trolling ND/TLoU2 threads
he's gotta keep his nose out of cocaine thats what he has to do
Yeah unless something absurd happens it's a battle between the Leafs/Canes for 26th/27th and then Yotes/Oilers for 28th/29th. Although, most of the anti-tank games are done except for BUF/TOR at the very end. Until then it's CAL, ANA, CHI, STL, NJ, NYI, PIT, and NYR. Yeehaw.
And just as I type this, Dano ties it up. This team...
