Expansion on the Horizon S4Breaking news! There are rumors of a 27th team joining the NHL through expansion. When reached for comment Bettman had this to say “After an offseason with only 5 relocations, we think the marketplace could be ripe for expansion.” - Bettman We’re hearing his preference is for an Arizona franchise, but other locations could be play too. Press Reporter - Have you given any thought to where this 27th franchise could be located? Bettman - Somewhere in Arizona ideally. It has such a great hockey history. That market seems like a stable bet. Press Reporter - Any other cities in play? Bettman - Freeport, Kansas , Elkins, Arkansas, Akhiok, Alaska. Somewhere we can REALLY grow the game. I bet we could get 50% of the population of Freeport wanting to catch some NHL action. Maybe Pyongyang. A lot of great options Press Reporter - ….. ok If Bettman is able to pull this off, we could see some interesting story lines unfold over the season. What will teams protection lists look like? Where will 27 end up? Will Bettman ever be fired? Kane One last bit to tie up from the “I’m not surprised” pile Sources in Halifax are telling me Evander Kane is currently under investigation, again. This time “Evander Kane has been accused of running an underground baby fighting ring. “ - Halifax Source But I’m also hearing this stems from another investigation this summer when there were rumors he took a 10-1 odds bet he’d sign in Riga, soooo this will be an ongoing story We know Halifax believes in 7th chances, what about 8,9,…10? Teams potentially interested in taking on the expansion 27th team inquire with Slovan Stags GM . Your current team will be vacated when the time comes. This will be for S4

Can you even do 27 teams? Wouldn't adding 2 teams be easier? 🤔🤷

I fixed an error in the post to prevent a possible defamation lawsuit from Patrick Kane. Not a good idea to get him mixed up with Evander

The Halifax Highlanders released a statement from GM Luongod in regards to the Evander Kane accusations:
"This is a disturbing allegation that we as an organization take seriously. We intend to cooperate with the league and police investigation into the matter. However, to be fair to Evander, he had 27 goals last year."
