Taking about the 90’s renovation of Key Arena. If the Key Arena was equal in quality and up to date like the Moda Center in Portland then the sonics don’t leave.No idea what you are talking about?
First of all. Requirements per the city for the key arena renovation, was to house both the NHL and the NBA. Even in the MOU it required both leagues to sign off on it. The NHL group wants a NBA team.
OH and our NHL group already has the NHL team. It was announced last tuesday.
My point is that sports teams are dependent on the arena. And who controls the revenues determines if a sport will play there.
If Fertitta doesn’t want to pay what Seattle did that’s entirely his decision. Means that Houston won’t have an NHl team.
NHL was able to get back to Seattle after their failed 90’s expansion bid. Time will tell if they can get into Houston.
