While things are going slowly in the NHL, we can at least be sure that Tampa Bay Lightning’s Amalie Arena will see some regular season action in near future. It’s not going to be the NHL’s regular season, but the NBA’s one. As it was reported yesterday the Toronto Raptors’ request to play in their hometown was denied by the Canadian government, meaning that the Raptors needed another home for the upcoming 2020-21 season. Eventually Tampa was selected as their location, beating Nashville and Fort Lauderdale as other finalists. Nearness to the Miami Heat and the rich infrastructure in Tampa were the main factors in the Raptors’ final decision.
