Canada needs the next team or when yotes relocate... Utuah will fail. You got a maj white mormon state hockey will never work. I think nhl if they do this needs atleast 2.3 billion plus royalties forever 30 percent. It has to be a HUGE price. Atlanta failed even when they brought in black players to appeal to african american population there... Utah could have mcdavid ovechkin crosby bedard and it would NEVER work. NHL needs to do this instead have ONE ahl team be allowed to play in NHL. This would be a regulation spot. That would increase competition.

Do what seattle did. Sell futures for season tickets and guage assessment from the area. I don't know many interested personally but they may be out there. This isn't field of dreams, guage interest then look at it
