Seattle NHL franchise could get approved Tues!
« on: November 30, 2018, 06:39:33 PM »
The best game on the planet could be expanding again soon!

The NHL board of governors will meet Tuesday December 4th to vote. If approved, the Seattle franchise could begin play as soon as 2020. YEAH! :taco::taco:

A well-conditioned team wins in the first ten minutes, maybe less. The opponent is destroyed not just on the scoreboard but their will is broken when an opponent comes out hard and fast.

I personally like Firebirds, Eagles and Cougars as my Top 3 choices.

Thunder!...

I’m mostly curious if Seattle will be in year 20/21’ or 21/22’

"Kraken" would not be a wise choice given the play on words, "The Seattle expansion franchise are Kraken under the pressure!" :rofl:

Totems seems boring.
Metropolitans shortened to Metros sounds as bad as the defunct MLB Expos! What the hell is an Expo anyway?
Sockeyes is junior league stuff.

Seattle should be bold and go with the Seattle Grunge!

I keep hearing it's going to be a "rubber stamp" approval Tuesday when the vote happens. You have to imagine with Hollywood producer Jerry B backing the group, they're going to push hard for a 2020-21 start date! Afterall, all investors want an immediate ROI!

Unfortunately we all have to wait an additional year to get team 32 on the ice.

Skyline is probably the best choice of the names I've seen. Sasquatches would be funny.

Good to see Seattle landing a franchise.

As for a team nickname, brother, I can totally see them screwing that up. Hopefully with Bruckheimer helping oversee things, they get steered in the right direction. BIG NO to Totems, Kraken, Sockeyes and Sasquatch.

  • STLBlues91: Im just looking at the draft prospects this and next year figuring out my plan
    Today at 12:08:08 AM
  • STLBlues91: Im ready for that expansion draft
    Today at 12:08:19 AM
  • Daddy: Yeah so about that. One team get first pick in the expansion draft. The other gets first pick in the amateur draft.
    Today at 12:10:24 AM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah figured that was how it would be
    Today at 12:11:15 AM
  • Daddy: I could flip a coin but nobody but me would see it. So a number has been selected between 1-32. You are both getting pms along with the two other mods.
    Today at 12:12:09 AM
  • STLBlues91: Sounds good. When you thinking this will occur
    Today at 12:12:41 AM
  • Daddy: Whomever guesses closer to the number gets the 1st overall pick in the amateur draft. The other picks first in expansion.
    Today at 12:13:04 AM

    Today at 12:13:49 AM
  • Daddy: Ive got the tools now to build the matrix and the league.

  • STLBlues91: Sounds good, I will be thinking of a solid number
    Today at 12:15:05 AM
  • Daddy: Best get to building it.
    Today at 12:15:32 AM
  • Daddy: Honestly idk why the NBA doesn't do it that way for expanding. Two teams at a time. Expansion draft to amateur draft. I think the idea is fresh and its execution will be pretty dope. ;)
    Today at 12:25:15 AM
  • jimw: I think the NBA goes one team at a time to give the one team a better talent pool in the expansion draft and also to keep the teams from complaining about losing more players
    Today at 01:25:47 AM
  • Daddy: Thats fair
    Today at 01:27:48 AM
  • BayAreaBallers: that makes sense
    Today at 01:32:38 AM
  • Daddy: I mean they only losing one guy anyway tho. We expose 10 players, protect 5 players, each team, all 30 will lose one player.
    Today at 01:36:30 AM
  • Daddy: The expansion teams will then both have 15 players heading into the amateur draft with picks #1 & #2.
    Today at 01:37:43 AM
  • Daddy: Each other team will still have 14 players and one first round pick.
    Today at 01:38:26 AM
  • Daddy: They need to hire me is what they need to do :rofl:
    Today at 01:38:53 AM
  • Daddy: Yeah you lose a guy to the expansion draft. Likely your 6th man. Then the very next day you draft his replacement and keep it moving.
    Today at 01:40:25 AM
  • STLBlues91: Daddy quick question in your messages
    Today at 01:44:14 AM
  • Daddy: We are good to go.:toth:
    Today at 02:01:09 AM
  • jimw: I think in the Bobcat expansion each team could protect 8 players. And I think the bobcats has to take at least 14 so half the league didn't even lose a player.
