I hope the Las Vegas TBAs enjoy Jay Bouwmeester, #1 defenseman.

I'm guessing that's pretty much a green light for teams make trades to Vegas in return for not picking particular players, because what other kind of trades could Vegas make before the team even plays?

Damnit. Eastside Hockey Manager is hardcoded to have 30 teams in the NHL. The game is ruined.

Somebody posted on the last page of the old thread that the new team would have the same odds in the entry draft as the the third worst team... The NHL should have just said "gently caress it, you go first." The team isn't going to win for a while, give the new fans someone to be psyched about.

It's probably more appropriate that they be indoctrinated into the rest of hockey fandom by being able to bitch about the Oilers winning the 1st overall pick again

Of course you/we are. Gotta build up that suspense and whip together a military-fellating 30-60 minute video presentation where the logo and name isn't unveiled until the last 5 minutes or so.

anyone interested in what a T-Mobile sponsored team uniform might look like should take a look at the Telekom Baskets Bonn obviously this is a basketball team and not representative of what a hockey jersey looks like but the color scheme and design is pretty close EDIT: these are actually pretty sweet (2014-15 season kit) and i could definitely see the hockey kit going for that sharp line shutter thing

As a Native Nevadan I am beyond stoked that Las Vegas got a NHL franchise. I live in Reno (450 miles north) and will be getting partial season ticket packages each year.

This is always bullshit. They already have a name picked out. Just gotta get the hype going with hashtags and news articles, and a "name the team" contest that is just there to collect email addresses.

Regardless of what their colors will be. I'm sure the logo will look like poo poo. Should just borrow from a pinball table.

If that happens they need to make this their club song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQPGtzmStq4 (Also I'm in Vegas right now for a job fair, went to the Pinball HoF and BK2K was out of service. Still got a couple shots of the "VEGAS IS HOCKEY" displays at T-Mo and outside MGM Grand.)

Why would the Craps use a T-Mobile color scheme? It's not like Bill Foley also owns T-Mobile, they're just the arena sponsor.

I honestly thought that Las Vegas' first major team would be from the NBA and not the NHL. You'd have the convenience of NBA refs going right to their bookies in person before the game.

There has to be one more expansion soon to get to a 16-16 structure. I hope Hartford gets a team back and the Wings move into the Central division

I'm trying to put together a mock expansion draft and going through teams trying to figure out who to protect has made me realize I'm not as knowledgeable about this league as I used to be.
