I hope and think Vegas will do well, though I have a feeling that fans of other teams selling their rink out might be how it happens though.
I'm a little tired about the non traditional argument as well.. what other traditional markets need a team? Another one in Toronto, but the Leafs are never going to let that happen.. or its going to cost a bazillion dollars. Quebec City.. ok, I'll agree there. The ownership group isn't in a huge hurry because the Canadian dollar stinks, and nobody outside of Quebec is buying a Nordiques 2.0 anything.
