[QUOTE=laserpanda;52966953]That seems like a good reason though. Florida's attendance wasn't great when it looked like they were going to be good a few years ago. Now they're back to being a bottom of the barrel team and their attendance is third worst in the league. (After Carolina and the Islanders who play in a badly designed undersized arena in a terrible location. )[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Propane Addict;52971924]Honestly, Florida doesn't need 2 teams when there are plenty of Canadian and Northern US cities that would pack the Arena for every single home game.[/QUOTE]
The thing is though, it's obvious that the league wants to try and bring new markets into the fold rather than relying on places where the game is already massively popular. They were really keen on getting Vegas a team and much slower with Seattle, which still isn't a guarantee yet anyway.
Florida is the 3rd largest state in the country, I'm sure the league would rather keep trying to build another base there.
Oilers outshooting the Preds 44-19, and they're being shutout 4-0. This team is so frustrating to watch.
love vgk beating the pens, fleury looking great back in it

Seems p successful in Vegas so far, but with such a young team getting quick success that's not much of a surprise or any indicator to come. Will be interesting to see how Seattle fairs if it goes through

The Oilers have had a legitimately bizarre season. What happened?

Sometimes McDavid makes the mistake of passing the puck to players not named McDavid.
Also I got my pads in today. One more expensive purchase (Mask) and I'm a goalie. In a few decades the free ice time might even pay for it.
Super fucking hype for this flyers/pens match-up
lets go flyers
I'm hoping the Lightning get their shit together for this series against the Devils. Their performance in the last few games has me very worried.
well this was definitely not the outcome i wanted but at least ovi gets the cup i guess.
super disappointed in vegas' performance after watching them this season and their play in the other series. just sloppy and so many bad turnovers. really blew it
So many missed goals, bad passing, and some really stupid penalties on their part. The Capitals deserve the Cup, they totally outplayed Vegas.

Best part of the celebration.
hype as fuck hockey is back. flyers gonna make this a good year, so excited for our new lines
Pettersson is the real deal. He's gonna keep me watching every single game this season.
