Hmmm wonder what that could be. Overseas game next year? Our unofficial outdoor game? Or cause Justin Williams night.

 

[SlavinAway]

Probably to announce our relocation since we didn’t make any deadline moves.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Probably to lead the team in an extra special storm surge.

 

[dogbazinho]

Puts on Jerks shirt, does that clap thing and announces a winter classic in Dallas.

We did the herculean task of moving Pu.

Dear god if he didn't say anything and just started skol clapping.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Outdoor game is my guess.

 

[RodTheBawd]

I love Bettman, and he would reach legendary status if he ended an outdoor game announcement with some type of storm surge.

 

[Svechhammer]

Outdoor game is my guess.

Presser just a few days after the Stadium Series game with a team who has expressed interest in hosting an outdoor game, even if that meant paying for it ourselves?

Yeah smells like outdoor game to me.

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Yup, my thoughts are it's one of three things: outdoor game, overseas game, or Dundon taking an early option on purchasing Karmanos's remaining shares of the team.

Either the first or the last would necessitate popcorn and a viewing of the BoH forum.

 

[My Special Purpose]

This is a great time to start a rumor.

 

[Roboturner913]

Oh Lord, here come the vultures and the plane-watching

 

[GoldiFox]

Dundon has been working on securing an outdoor game at Carter Finley since he bought the team. Sounds like an announcement that would come on-site from Bettman.

 

[Svechhammer]

They're docking us draft picks because of the embarrassment of the Storm Surge

Buffalo's 2nd, 3rd and 6th.

"Give Tom a downtown arena or we're moving to Quebec."

 

[MinJaBen]

"Give Tom a downtown arena or we're moving to Quebec."

I was thinking something between that statement and the one he gave the pols in Calgary when they said no to funding a new arena there. He is the heavy for the owners. Does anyone know if there is a Centennial Authority meeting tomorrow?

 

[DaveG]

Would bet it's the outdoor game announcement. Would be pretty happy with an announcement that we'll host the 2020 draft as well, usually that's announced by now and it went over exceptionally well the last time it was a thing here.

 

[MisterEd89]

Well the speculation was nice while it lasted...

 

[A Star is Burns]

It would have been a little odd to announce the game now. Aren't they aiming for season after next and these things usually get announced a season ahead of time?

 

[HisIceness]

He's just going to be hanging out with his new buddy Tom Dundon. That's all.

fans in carolina seem pretty laid back now, he probably is avoiding the boos

Gary Bettman to strip the Canes of the 2006 Championship for outside interference.
