Speculation: Bettman to have presser at Carolina

[RodTheBawd]

I want to know what they were discussing initially.
Something about "by the rules."
"Good point"
"Don't you have an office code of conduct?"

Maybe Dundon's attire?

"We're moving to Quebec, but the arena won't be ready for another 2 years so we'll play in Carter-Finely for the interim.

I think now that Dundon owns the team, we can scratch Quebec off the list. I don't see that dude allowing Quebec to happen. Now Houston ...

Do you really think you'd see much hockey at a football stadium? It's a nice novelty, but I wouldn't spend a dime to sit in a lousy seat

Honestly, yes it would be a lot better than that Bristol game.

There was literally a building between my seat and the field in Bristol. The stadium itself was too shallow for the event, and the closest end zone seats were basically 150 yards from the action, when it was a goalline stand at that end zone. And even then, with my seat that far from the field, I could still follow the play.

Hockey in a football stadium isn't ideal, but it would be a heck of a lot better than that. Might not be able to see the puck too much, but at least you'll be able to see the players. And the sideline seats would be lightyears better than anything we had in Bristol.

Hope it happens. I'll definitely go. I enjoyed the Caps Winter Classic at Nats Park. We sat in the very last row of right field and it was perfect sight lines for that game. It was a fun event.

Maybe Dundon's attire?

I mean all jokes aside, Dundon does look a bit goofy in his tracksuit next to all the others in actual suits. I would most definitely dress differently as an owner when I show Bettman around. But hey, as long as he is successful I couldn't care less.

 

[HisIceness]

Nah, Predators. Market it as SEC vs. ACC or NAS vs. CAR and I imagine a few heads would explode.

Yes yes yes!

 

[Unsustainable]

Sounds like we are in line for stadium series 2021-2022 season

 

[VaCaps Fan]

Imagine the tailgating!

Imagine the tailgating!

It would be swell!

Why? Bettman isn't Dundon's boss, he represents the owners. Dundon strikes me as the type of dude that has always hated suits and has reached a point where he never has to wear one again.

If an individual is the only one at a meeting with a suit on, they are likely the most important person there
If an individual is the only one at a meeting without a suit on, they are likely the most important person there

Can't remember if I saw that here or on Reddit but it is always what I think of when Dundon's attire is mentioned

If the canes play an outdoor game I’m definitely planning a trip to Raleigh.

Good interview Forslund did with Bettman
