Yes. Or no way the NHL would have said we are opening up the expansion process just for seattle.

Yes, Yes they are. I mean the NHL opened the expansion period only for Seattle. I think they have a fair understanding what is happening here.

I'm sure there will be a throwback night against the Vancouver Millionares with throwback jerseys that people can buy. For both teams.

New poll series coming from me on June 3
Think this is an if at this point. Will be good to see Seattle as the 32nd team. Seattle should be a fun NHL market.

Season is not over yet, but I expect Seattle, at least from fan and media pov to have pressure to perform as good as Vegas currently is. What Vegas is doing currently is writing hockey history books but I doubt that can easily redone again.

Will take a few weeks to fill it out. Then NHL will be reviewing for weeks-months before making recommendation to BoG.
That'd be cool. The Canucks have worn Millionaires' jerseys with the old "V" logo from the PCHL days at games, so no reason Seattle couldn't, too.
There is a reason why Vegas is doing so well and that was how the expansion draft was setup by the league. I don't see that suddenly changing for Seattle.

Was goofing around with Wiktionary. First thought sublimely subverted...
"Lumberjack: an entertainer in shows which feature ax-throwing, pole climbing, & etc. A man who "works in the woods" is a logger not a lumberjack."
The following seemed interesting: "Bucker: one who saws trees into logs"
Then... "Skookum: strong, stout, brave (Chinook)"
So if Seattle doesn't want "Skookumjacks" on my say so, I'm sure I'll find a use for that somewhere.

I understand that and don't get me wrong GS but Vegas, when they drafted, they got a bunch of 3rd and 4th liners, guys that took their hearts to the ice and decided to play like 1st liners all together.
The league, for once, did good, but I doubt any next expansion team (no matter which location) will do as well as Vegas is doing in their first season. Heck, Marchessault that played in junior for Quebec, the guy never even got drafted and just signed a 5 years 30 mil deal with Vegas because he's playing very very good. Any other player that had such thing happen was Marty St-Louis. It's not common, it's all I am saying.
I am just giving credit to Vegas because everyone doubted their season was going to be as great as it is today. Before the season started, bids were 200 to 1 for Vegas winning the cup, they are now 7 to 1.

He played for Tampa Bay but he was never drafted. He was signed with Connecticut in AHL and later got a chance with Blue Jackets.
Or he also played for Florida, scoring 30 goals last season.

here's the full document
It shows the building looked like after it was built after the 95 renovation and after the OVG redesign plan after it is done.
