They did it. They actually went ahead and did it. May god have mercy on our souls. NHL awards an expansion franchise to to Las Vegas, set to start playing in the 2017-2018 season. This will be the 31st club in the NHL, and the first expansion franchise since good ol' Y2K. We all know the league should have stopped expanding in the 1920s, but here we are.. Discuss all your clever potential names here. some kinda jackal fucked around with this message at 22:48 on Jun 22, 2016 |

Ugh yeah that's the one. Dislike. It'd be fine on some DIV3 NCAA football jersey I guess.

Also, Habs don't need a mandatory protection rule to protect Carey Price. The only logic they should need to protect Carey is LOOK AT LAST YEAR YOU IDIOTS

El Gallinero Gros posted:Tampa drew well this year but they couldn't get people to watch them to win the Cup without giving away a lot of tickets. This is no lie. I went to a ton of games in all four rounds including SCF in 2004 for probably the price of going to one round in a normal NHL city. To be fair, though, 2003 was probably the first year they weren't complete poo poo though and actually worth watching... which means Vegas should start to see good attendance in like 2030? Oh and also the lockout immediately after didn't help.

I'm trying to decide whether I believe that comped tickets will result in actual okay attendance or just large swathes of empty seats at a "sold out" game.

drat, worried about the whole Radulov situation and now he's unprotected too so humm. Pretty okay with the protection list for the Habs except for Shaw but I guess we'll see what comes of it. My nightmare was that they'd protect Emelin. I'm glad to see it hasn't happened but I still don't think V is stupid enough to grab that sack of poo poo.

Pretty much my hot take on it as well. Name and logo are stupid. Other than that I guess it's neat. The red is a surprisingly nice touch.
