I still think that should have it's limits. 50 km's seems reasonable. Extending that to a city that wasn't even considered to be in the GTA until recently (Hamilton) and is 70 km's out of town. Seems above and beyond what the intent of the rule is they're greedy (frank)ing pigs.

I mean, they run the league so it shouldn't come as a surprise. Most of us would be greedy in that position too.

Well yes, obviously, but let’s not get our hopes up just yet. Cassels did win a Memorial Cup and then...

Just another toxic Vancouver fan.

Why would an owner cut his own profits to help someone else?

I could maybe see teams agreeing to it if it’s an expansion team since everyone gets a chunk of the expansion fees. But I highly doubt Toronto’s ownership would be happy with Arizona or Florida moving to Hamilton.
- Nucker101

I've thought that it would be worth offering MSLE a partial ownership in an expansion franchise in the GTA, or a highly discounted expansion fee. League wins (more revenue), and MSLE wins (equity stake).

I think having competition in the largest markets (Toronto, NewYork, LA) is a win all around

Sutter is a poor playmaker.
A 3C or 4C PK role is all he is good for.

- Nighthawk

It's an entertainment business, what's unethical? They just have to say that is compensation for allowing the expansion within the exclusive territory

Funny how you have Pettersson Gaudette Lind all making the team and Tree coming back yet Juolevi making the team is where you draw the line

That would be funny if MLSE didn't already make the rules ;-)

I presume you are thinking of the potential conflict at an operating level...which is completely fair.

C’mon it won’t happen. There is no potential then. What will happen is MLSE will do everything to block it. Buffalo also.

Granlund is a RFA. Tryamkin would be nice but thinking Juolevi will get the chance.

I'm sure Bettman would make it worth their while. But I'm just saying that I don't think MLSE would do it out of the kindness of their hearts.

They do get some smaller benefits out of it as well, a new rivalry, basically zero travel for the "road games" in Hamilton, etc.
- Nucker101

But if the overall profit of the league went up it would benefit them as a result. Hamilton would be a bad market as you have Ottawa and Toronto in ON already. Quebec and Houston are the best bets to move too atm.

If they put a team in Hamilton say bye bye to Buffalo.
