Breaking: NHL expansion may have hit a major roadblock. - NHL News - Hockey Feed

Canes are in the hole for 300 million. Sad to see them go. I wonder how PNC arena will survive. I hear NC State wants to build a basketball stadium on campus.

The main flaw with that is the owners want money for new franchises. They won't get that under this and if they are really owed $300 mil, seems like that money could come in handy.

Who knows, these deals are always shady anyway.

A few bloggers churning the same rumors doesn't make chat into fact.
That said, I could be a bit more comfortable...

All I know to do is to buy the season ticket plan and be a homer fan. Works for me until something else develops.
And, sales are up 40% this year over last. Optimism.

The NC State rumor is not based on any reality

A new downtown arena would attract more casual fans even when the team is losing.

Why bother relocating to Las Vegas, Nevada? The National Hockey League does not need additional instances like the Arizona Coyotes and the Atlanta Thrashers/Winnipeg Jets.
