Seattle has a number of billionaires, so a billion bucks for a team isn't too much to ask. But the NBA might just add two teams in Europe (like London, Paris, or Barcelona) where they can make bigger bucks. Seattle is the most lucrative empty NBA market in the US left.

Fabulous...the World League of American Basketball.

Is this the one?

Seattle has so many Costco, Amazon, Microsoft, and Boeing millionaires, the city is emerald in more ways than one.

that became the Colorado Rockies...(Rockie Hockey!), then the New Jersey Devils.

Like you guys didn't know... ;)

I would rename ALL of the divisions. The Atlantic would become the Patrick, the Metropolitan would become the Adams, the Central would become the Norris, and the Pacific would become the Smythe.

I second that motion!

Florida to Seattle...make it happen, Bettman!

I guess Wayne Gretzky is trying to bring a NHL team to Seattle. The group investors he's with, Providence Equity Partners, tried in 2011 to buy the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Toronto Raptors.

Looks like the NHL will expand to Las Vegas if enough season tickets are sold to prove Vegas is a viable market.

Why not? It'd be the only pro game in town. I think the NHL may have had better success with southern expansion had it not picked cities already saturated with pro sports teams (especially Miami).

Las Vegas expansion team...Seattle expansion team...Florida Panthers move to Quebec City or even Hartford...NHL gold.

A rumor this summer had the NHL adding four teams:  Las Vegas, Seattle, Quebec, and a second Toronto team that would play in the west.   The conferences would have even numbers, and the owner would divide at least $2 bill among them.

Two teams in the west would even things up. I think the east plan should be to simply move Florida to Quebec City. Oh, and Carolina can head back to Hartford, too.

Hartford played their games in a Mall.

Awesome looks like this is really going to happen! Id expect seattle to pull the trigger and agree to build and arena soon or the NHL may choose another spot in tukwila or Bellevue. Any of them would be fine with me. Best of all this isn't dependant on an nba team:)

The Seattle Thunderbirds and the Las Vegas Fuzzy Dice. Make it happen, NHL!
