LAS VEGAS – The NHL is expanding. That is the crux of what’s going on Wednesday at the league’s Board of Governors meeting here says Sportsnet.
How many teams and when? That wasn’t specified, though the obvious two are Las Vegas, a city that is building a beautiful new arena and has a prospective owner, and Seattle – a city without a new hockey arena and also without a clear prospective owner like Las Vegas and Bill Foley. Though Seattle the city and the market would be an excellent candidate for another team.
