Houston trying to lure NHL team Posted by Duhey2 [Email] (#151) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Duhey2) on Fri, 4 Nov 2005 06:29:43 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Article in today's Houston Chronicle stating that the Rockets owner wants to bring an NHL team to Houston. What is this guy smoking? The AHL affiliate Aeros have an average 5,000 in attendance.
It also states that any team coming here would be an existing team and not expansion. Teams mentioned as considering to move are the Nashville Predators, Buffalo Sabres, Carolina Hurricanes, Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitals. Buffalo, Pitt, and the Caps are names that surprise me as looking to move. Nashville was obviously a mistake and it looks like Peter Karmano is looking to screw Carolina like he did Hartford (which he screwed royally).
On a side note, I kinda like the coverage OLN is doing for games this year. I really enjoyed watching the Rangers play Montreal Monday night while listening to Sam Rosen and JD do play-by-play and color. They also seem to be carrying the more classic match-ups. My biggest gripe with ESPN was that I always seemed to get only Anaheim playing Colorado.
Hockey was so much better 10-15 years ago....
