Gary Bettman Issues A Massive Statement on Expansion plans
NHL Insider Pierre LeBrun from TSN received an update on current expansion plans from the NHL.
Several business owners and ventures appeared to be interested in forming an expansion team earlier this off-season.
Bettman said no current plans for expansion but did say the NHL keeps getting interest from would-be markets.
If you were to read between the lines, it seems to me more and more likely it's eventually happening again.
The recent success of the Vegas Golden Knights and Seattle Kraken is what the NHL needs to keep growing.
There are no current plans to expand the league in the near future, according to Gary Bettman.
LeBrun, however, feels something is not being said in between the lines.
As of now, we can only speculate about the league's future expansion.
